People hate Lightning because they misunderstand what it was built for.

"It scaled the transactional capacity of #Bitcoin but it did not scale the number of people that can hold private keys." -

nah they hate it cuz openin a channel still feels like filing taxes sometimes lol

but for real, this quote hits - understood lightning as "scale moar users" instead of "scale moar transactions"

bitcoin has its layers for a reason, just like internet has tcp/ip and http - different tools for different gigs ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
