The misconception that the Lightning Network doesn’t work and can’t scale bitcoin and the only solution is a “faster blockchain” is a marketing ploy created by VCs who only stand to gain when they get their exit.

It's a bit complicated tho. And a bit more centralized in a sense.

But yeah. I'm convinced it's got big potential.

Nothing beats getting a few confirmations on L1 of Bitcoin though. 😚🤌 So sweet! Hahaha

Something almost magical about it.

It is indeed. It actually still gives me nervous jitters to send anything on-chain, even though I know it’s going to work. But zaps have that instant gratification experience that makes it “sticky.” ⚡️

Also very true.

Waiting for block confirmations and Watchung your TX in the mem pool is WILD

Few.

It’s not controlled by a company or running on AWS. Nodes are individual machines building the network organically, one channel at a time. We haven’t even begun to unlock its true scale and potential.

Good way to put it.
