All fair, I see that.
To avoid higher fees, many throughout the world (and global south especially is what I’m thinking) still at least have access to some custodial lightning options if they weren’t able to open lighting channels during low fees. Ecash and fediment are being used and expanded there as well.
I guess I’m also saying we do have tools now to bridge between where we are and where we need to be. Any many exchanges will do no fees base chain for transactions not in a rush (like 24 hours).
I’m combating some of what I hear when high fees come up and people act as if we’re completely fucked, or that poor people don’t have tools to utilize that avoid these high expenses.
