I wonder how many tx’s Lightning removes from on-chain Bitcoin every day and how much pressure it’s taken off the mempool, and what effect on sats/vb that has.

Has anyone ever been able to quantify these figures or create some kind of estimate?

Lightning also enables us to do things on-chain never could have like Nostr zaps and micro txs, but that’s a separate thing.

River did a study on it: https://river.com/learn/files/river-lightning-report-2023.pdf

A year ago they estimated that there were now more transactions on lighting than the base chain.
