I haven't had a chance to watch this yet but if it is what I think it is. (Real time payments using lightning) The What Bitcoin Did podcast covered it a while back. I'm not sure if the guest was

Pierre Rochard.

I believe this is the future of how everything will be paid for.

I wish I could find the episode but the WBD search function on their website isn't that great

This wasn't the topic I thought it was but still important.

Seems to me that this could end up making power costs lower for everyone

Lower costs and more stability and yea NOTHING directly related to lightning.

I wish I could remember the WBD episode but the topic was about using large power users using realtime lightning payments to reduce price volatility. It was very interesting
