We can't expect new scaling solutions to keep happening, the only one we managed to invent in 14 years was Lightning, really, and it is becoming more and more clear that it isn't the silver bullet most people (including me) thought.

It's not the silver bullet. Constantly managing to have inbound liquidity is nothing the masses would accept.

If you don't do it you are forced to use centralized services (and most lightning users already use them today).

Half serious question, could a simple relay system provide an alternative?

No, because it doesn't solve the double-spending problem that blockchains do.

I meant for a Layer 2
