That's one of the ones that many people will feel, the taste will happen this year too, bitcoin prices will soar to go back to always be the king for altcoin, I'll wait for the bitcoin increase this year that could exceed last year.

Maybe not to the moon but it will definitely get a huge boost if lighting network is as good as they say.

I think it will really help a lot in terms of alleviating the network congestion and as a result will push the price even further. It really depends on how you define mooning here. But I'm sure that there will be a renewed interest that will comes along with the implementation of Lightning Network. And I don't think that it will crush altcoins, although it may significantly affect how their market goes because there maybe people who will shift their funds from altcoin to bitcoin once again. We all know for a fact that this has been practice by most investors and traders. If they see that bitcoin is moving up, they will dump their altcoins immediately. Let's see how it goes though, we have been hearing that the test was successful. Only time will tell when they are going to activate it with bitcoin. It will not be an easy task in the beginning, but if people find LN a big boost to really help with the high fees and slow confirmation, I'm sure that everyone will be happy to see it doing its purpose as sidechain. |

Even with the fix of the scalability issue, I do not think bitcoin will moon too much.
There are a lot of better coins showing up which offers more value than bitcoin when transferring monetary values.
I think bitcoin consumes too much energy to maintain and is kind of wasteful of resources.
Thinking of supporting more emerging blockchain tech like DAG from IOTA and RaiBlocks.

When LN comes the price of Bitcoin will increase and the price of altcoins will drop down but this means not the end for altcoins.

mmmm... i don't think so. there are a lot alternative projects.. just think at NEO, like Eth but with 1000 Transaction per sec: ETH mange just 15 trans/sec. and this it's just the first one that comes to mind. |

Adoption of Lightning Network by bitcoin will be the greatest landmark in the transaction of bitcoin which will invariably put to an end scalability problems. Although there is a widespread belief that LN is centralized which is against the core objective of bitcoin "decentralization" |

Definitely,it will help bitcoin usage to go back to mainstream again but at the same time,it will not crush altcoins.But altcoins may suffer a small dip in price due to the bitcoin rally.I think that the lightning network should have been activated much before so that all these big issues of higher transaction fee and late confirmations would have been avoided in the beginning itself. |

Sometimes I feel as if the Lighting Network is a unicorn that we are hoping and waiting to see.... Have you guys ever seen "Charlie the Unicorn" on Youtube? LOL! Pretty funny if you are into that kind of silly humour.

The main purpose of lightning network is to speed up the bitcoin transaction speed with zero transaction fee. Once the lightning network is fully implement on bitcoin network a lot of things are going to change because bitcoin is going to be faster, stronger and smoother than ever. |

bitcoin on its worst days was surging in price , so yeah logically bitcoin should moon if lightning was applied successfully and yes many altcoins gonna be dumped so hard , cause we saw a lot of pumps recently with no reason at all beside using the famous sentence " bitcoin isn't usable , this alt has cheap transactions and it gonna replace bitcoin " |

If lightning network can solve the recent problem of bitcoin so no doubt bitcoin will go to the moon again and break all the time high of its price in 2017. I believe this will happen. Just the matter with time. Now its running already started. |

Bitcoin really needs that not just for going to the moon , but just for stable operation. Now is it horrible. mempool is always full, fees are high, that makes the transfers of 15-20$ in BTC value not reasonable. I don't tell about 200-300 dollars , but 10% of fee is unpleasant too.
I believe if LN comes the last BTC forks will go down and stay there . BCH for example.

Do you really want to bitcoin go to the moon in the expense of all altcoins that they should bleed? You should think that altcoins also contributed for stability of bitcoin in which everytime we need fiat we will force to sell our altcoins to buy bitcoin for fiat. You should consider too that if bitcoin will become very expensive to purchase most of the investors will shift to altcoin in which cheaper to purchase than bitcoin. |

HAHA yes I have that is a epic mini clip series  . It does kind of feel that way but I think that is because in crypto we are spoiled and used to getting news and updates all the time that it feels like it is taking forever. It should happen this year though but I am speculating and there always can be delays. |

Will lightning hubs in the USA be able to provide services for sanctioned countries, like say Russia?
