My fear with cryptocurrencies

[olumyd]

The fear of the unknown has got people thinking LN will not work. Off-chain scaling might be the long awaited solutions for bitcoin adopters. If you don't believe it will work without a a reasonable technical analysis to present your case,  that's sheer speculation regardless of your analysis and invalid - your gut could be wrong.

Adoption is being done on since the past years and its amazing on how many countries are already accepting bitcoin. And not just a country but those countries are really well known for having a good market and economy, like Japan and South Korea.

It's quite ironic how an off-chain solution is the only hope for solving the blockchain problems. Either way, I just don't see how LN is going to be a success: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2792933.0

Did you ever see it implemented? We are not yet there how come you ended up with that opinion. LOL

Personal speculation just like many on btctalk. I have high hopes for LN and right now, with btc transactions way better and faster than a few months ago, it seems SegWit is doing what it's supposed to do.
