Yeah ofc, it can't be bearish if shitcoiners are paying our miners now.

Even if it's a direct payment sometimes, thats fine.

Fee estimation will be off for a blip, but if we implement this dumb ordisrespect patch fee estimation will be fucked - a lot of more technical people have gone over this - Shinobi, carman, etc..

& when I say bearish I don't mean price action.

I mean the health of Bitcoin - the network.

True but we also need ways for the unbanked to use Bitcoin without crazy fees. So maybe this accelerates the later 2/3 development

The biggest issue for the unbanked is concurrent fees & traveling to bank branches.

Onchain BTC is only good for savings for them regardless - even at 1sat/vb.

Bech32 -> LN = unbanked on Bitcoin.

Taproot, fedimints, etc. = Unbanked on Bitcoin.

Have enough saved up?

Welcome to the main-chain.

This was true in 2017, & it's true now.

High fees -> LN development go up technology.

It’s a big subject and so much to understand in Bitcoin. Thanks for info, always appreciated πŸ€™
