Title: Lightning Network is the Future of Bitcoin
Post by: kingonly on March 22, 2018, 04:01:15 PM
Peter Thiel says that bitcoin is like bars of gold and that it is too cumbersome to be used as a payment system. Lightning Network is hopefully going to prove him wrong:

I read today that IOTA, stellar, ethereum and Neo are also working on their own Lightning Network.

The Lightning Network is a bigger invention than many people think yet many noobs still call bitcoin an outdated tech. Don't fall for this FUD.

Bitcoin with this much Dev activity is and will always be the king.

This is one of the big problems with newbies they think that satoshi just created bitcoin and never updated the technology, bitcoin is updated regularly by the developers and they are making bitcoin better and one of the ways they found to do that was with the lighting network and once it's fully operational we are going to be able to send micropayments again for a very low transaction fee.
