2026, on nostr no less, and people still don’t understand scaling tradeoffs in bitcoin
There is no magical blockchain that can be decentralized and fast and cheap and secure trillions
That’s why we must do layers
Maybe lightning is a bad layer lots of good arguments for that
But no matter what, some kind of trust trade off has to be made to stuff unlimited cheap instant transactions onto bitcoin, get your head out of your asses
