I have purchased to following things with lightning in the last week:

- no kyc AI using PPQ.ai
- no kyc vpn using Mullvad vpn
- a mail server using namecheap

At the moment seems like nimble privacy focused online services companies are at the forefront of adoption.

My guess is next will be small businesses who want to avoid taxes (the ones that give you a good discount for paying cash, you know the ones)

Others are ecommerce who want to avoid the massive stripe \ PayPal fees and avoid chargeback risk.

In each of these areas BTC lightning doesn’t off an on-par experience but actually a better one.

I used to be the BTC is digital Gold. Going through the process of actually using it as money made me realise that it can be used as money as Satoshi wanted.
