Bitcoin is so much more than just peer to peer electronic cash. Even if it never scaled with lightning it would still be useful as simple counter weight to keep the central banking cartel's power from becoming absolute. Those who understand economics and geopolitics understand how these institutions control entire countries through debt.

Read crypto economics by eric Voxkuil for an expanded treatment of this thought.
yah saifdean made the same claim that it’s enough for bitcoin to act as a “monetary batman” lurking in the shadows of the financial system. whenever central banks acted too criminally, bitcoin would be there to put them their place by acting as a caped crusader for hodlers of sound money by virtue of being an unconfiscatible, uncensorable, digital store of value that governments and central bankers could not steal or manipulate.

Čak i da nikada nije skalirao kroz #Lightning, opet bi bio bio koristan kao protivteža koja sprečava apsolutnu moć centralno-bankarskog kartela. Oni koji poznaju ekonomiju i geopolitiku znaju kako se kroz dug kontroliše ceo svet.
