Show Notes

"A reality check on the limitations of Lightning Network, and what that means in terms of its long term viability. No, it's not doomed, but it probably won't be used the way you expected it to be."

~ Shinobi


What has happened to lightning? With fees skyrocketing thanks to Ordinals bloating blockspace, tons of payments over lightning are no longer viable, or become entirely trusted. How did we not see this coming and what new issues have arisen as Lightning has matured? Does this spell the end of lightning, or is there more to this story? Find out in today's excellent piece at Bitcoin Magazine from Shinobi.

"The fact that so many successful politicians are such shameless liars is not only a reflection on them, it is also a reflection on us. When the people want the impossible, only liars can satisfy."
