Prediction

We are going to reach more than 1 million pending transactions, what is happening will mark a before and after.

A few of us said it months ago, watch out with ordinals, the pandora's box has been uncovered, at the time I said that we had to wait 3 months to see what happened, it has been 5 months, and here you have it.

Many say that the mempool is fine, free market, protection against spam and blah blah blah, I say it is an attack on bitcoin to make it unusable for ordinary people.

It will drive lightning adoption but it’s a pity most will use custodial LN wallets

No, in a context of extremely high tariffs LN becomes unusable.

Many people are now paying almost 200 dollars for forced channel closure.

Not to mention what it costs now to open a channel.

A high tariff context totally slows down the adoption of LN.

I can't verify this information as I already have 30+ opened channels with optimal sufficient capacity. But, does it make even sense to close the channel once it is opened? What is the point of closing it?
