put it this way, if monkey jpegs are really going to outbid lightning channel openings in a hyperbitcoinized world, then wtf is the point? any fee is a good fee and if we can’t structure the incentives such that people are willing to pay for legit use cases then we’ve lost.

and in fact, who is to even say what is and is not “legit” if not the market? so it’s all begging the question anyway.
