Can any eCash FUDster explain to me how eCash doesn't improve custodial lightning?
Can any eCash FUDster explain to me how we scale Bitcoin without custodial lightning?
Discussion
Deflation and CPFP
Care to elaborate?
As technology advances, not only will prices decline, but the demand for transactions will also decrease.
This reduction will make it easier and cheaper to open channels independently.
I personally think CPFP is better for small transactions compared to lightning. But I can see lightning being usefull for microtransactions. Once others start to catch on demand for channels will also fall making it even easier and cheaper to open channels
Not an eCash FUDster here but i'll still answer
Agree with the first thing. It's without a doubt an improvement on custodial lightning.
For the last part...either it's simply not possible or there is another layer/technology/schema/protocol that can accomplish it or come close (requires unilateral exit)
But whether we can or can't scale Bitcoin is separate from the fact that scaling IOUs is not scaling Bitcoin no matter how useful that can be.
