funny thing is bitcoin devs are actually right that it's a good idea to offload some amount of transactions onto a second layer. they just don't know how to do it very well as evidenced by this link. ethereum devs have already implemented multiple ways to do this and they all work better than lightning network.

A centralized, premined shitcoin with Vitalik on the top, wow.

what are the eth options?

someone tried to do a second layer with channels like what lightning does. it didn't really get anywhere. then a sidechain was made and it's still really popular but people acknowledge that sidechains are not as secure. now there are optimistic rollups, but they're still not perfect and have some limitations. rollups secured by zero knowledge proofs are better. until just recently nobody had a working zero knowledge rollup that could do smart contracts.

Here are your ETH roll ups

?odnHeight=450&odnWidth=450&odnBg=ffffff

any links? roll ups and zkp sound interesting

its great people continue to explore new things as blockchains have big problems

it really really irritates me how bitcoin maximalists pretend that everything they have is perfect and everyone else is wrong. there are so many ways to do this and we still don't know the perfect way to do it. if somebody ever tries to sell you a solution and they won't ever discuss any of its flaws, they are trying to deceive you.

perfection is an impossibilty we can only humbly hope to improve things, blind luck might have us stumble on something radically better, the cypherpunks worked a long time to get to bitcoin

i am not a maximalist btw, just someone trying to expand freedom and consciousness

If someone ever tries to sell you a solution and it has another token, it's a scam.

All work better, having its own token.

#Bitcoin has more L2 solutions than LN but scammers will never tell you that.
