Wtf??
Lightning has changed a ton, both on the protocol level and the network structure!
Anchor channels, Dual funding, splicing, adoption, prisms, lightning address
Lightning just isn't easily put into terms that people readily understand. Most people don't understand money and even fewer understand payments.
The reality is that VISA charges >3% for settlement that takes over 2 weeks, while Lightning currently costs 0.67% for instant settlement after accounting for liquidity costs.
If you're not comfortable holding BTC, add an exchange fee of 2%.
Don't even try this doo.

Some good lightning news:
Lightning channels are growing, on average, but decreasing in number.
1. This is an indicator of greater investment in select connections while pruning less advantageous ones.
2. This enables larger payments.
As the BTC price increases, the max payment size is amplified.
