Lightning Network Debate: Bitcoin's future or overhyped flop? Harsha Goli vs. Paul Sztorc 2025.
Q: What is Lightning's big problem currently?
It has quite a few problems, but one for me is that you need layer one bytes in order to join, and also to remain secure, you need a credible ability to access L1 bytes.
