Lightning was never an end solution, it’s a stepping stone. I’ve been explaining how I think lightning is going to play a critical role as the connective tissue for liquidity between a huge variety of L3 pools, protocols, smart contracts, federated networks, etc.

All of the tools this era that were designed for plebs and user payments, will end up being infrastructure for services, businesses, community pools, and decentralized markets going forward. It’s the same shift that happened with #Bitcoin in the previous cycle. Lightning isn’t going anywhere, it’s going to be absolutely massive but we will have to change how we think about it.
