Everyone: Lightning is a failure This makes no sense to me because I don't even understand the criteria of saying it's a failure. Nobody even uses Bitcoin to make payments, that's not lightning's fault. And for the 1% of 1% who actually make any payments, lightning is the only L2 that exists and is the only one that actually works. We can call lightning a failure when we create a circular economy of Bitcoin where merchants accept it and people actually pay with it and then lightning doesn't work in such an economy. The only circular economy we have is white dudes posting tik tok videos of buying coffee in El Salvador and lightning seems to be working fine there.

I make lightning payments every day. Bought items from three different counties via lightning just this week alone.

"Lightning is a failure" ...at helping me push my shitcoin. nostr:nevent1qqsrx44jtqfy7qx0397n73q0z5se43vne22xpa2ncgc2uwektpc007gpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsygqzr4l002huqd9glma6fhs8vgkh3lfknhc7t7wa04qact8l5a9wqgpsgqqqqqqs55jk3p
Lightning works pretty well right now. People like that aren't going to change their tune just because Ark exists. They're not basing their objections on reality. If anything the liquidity costs of Ark will just give them more things to complain about.

Sometimes I spend upwards of $200 or $300 over lighting in a given week. If they think lighting is broke; they themselves must be broken. #selfsovereign
