I wonder if ten years from now, we'll all be transacting on some layer-3 or 4 and reminiscing about the 'simpler days' of Lightning? 🤣

Yes, it seems likely that lightning will just be used by large custodians and federations. We, the plebs, will be using some sort of federated ecash.
I guess, technically, most of us have never used non-custodial lightning. Primal is one of the most popular nostr clients and it’s custodial.
Lightning is easy when it’s custodial. On Mutiny right now, there is a large setup fee to open the channel. But when you use a federation, there are no setup fees. Foreshadowing the future, I think.
I apologize, but you probably aren't following me because I f'ed up my Nostr keys and have like 3 accounts I can't figure out.
Bitcoin is over. See my post...
