Title: How to recive money with Lightning Network Post by: jinneas on July 23, 2021, 01:41:14 AM I used to have an e-wallet and I knew how to accept Bitcoin payments. But I recently learned that using the Lightning Network can also be used for payments, and it also has the advantages of low fees and fast payments.
I have a store and I want to use the Lightning Network to recive money. How should I do this? Title: Re: How to recive money with Lightning Network Post by: Bttzed03 on July 23, 2021, 02:22:03 AM The Lightning Network FAQ https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5158920

Besides, it's not yet suitable for big transactions.
I'm not trying to discourage you from adding it to your store but I don't expect you'll receive many payment through it. If your concern is bitcoin high transaction fees, then you could think of accepting other currencies with low transaction fees such as LTC.

Lightning network is better for paying small transactions, you visit a coffee shop daily, you can open a channel with the coffee shop owner and be using lightning network for the payment. This type of transaction will not be good on onchain but rather be good on layer 2. This will keep the mempool less busy if many people adopt lightning network.

Besides, it's not yet suitable for big transactions. BlueWallet (https://bluewallet.io/lightning/) provides a seamless Lightning experience for newbies. Also, my node routed quite a few large payments (up to 900k satoshis). I wouldn't be surprised if larger nodes were routing much bigger transactions.
