Lightning Network vs banks. Speed is not even close.
Lightning payments settle in seconds, globally, without permission or opening hours. Banks still rely on batch processing and legacy settlement that can take days.
This is infrastructure, not marketing. One is native to the internet, the other is not.

@dcc @yukiame @cjd I can buy a VPN service via #LightningNetwork instantly right now, and not be tracked by digital payments.
So what? Yes, physical cash is the next-best thing, but it's being diluted at incredible rates, so the cash you have right now will not even buy you a hot dog next year.

Cryptocurrency top priorities for 2025/2026:
Connectivity. Via satellites. Excellent work by @blockstream, but it's not enough, widespread usage is also needed.
Privacy. Great work on this from #LightningNetwork and @monero. @ethereum making progress but still poor UX.

Shout-out to @mullvadnet for introducing #LightningNetwork payments this year (and keeping the 10% discount for privacy-preserving, fully FOSS payments).
And now you can also open a channel directly to their new Lightning node:

@TheZeldaZone Granted, 99+% of "crypto" is a scam, that doesn't make it ALL evil. Dont't throw all of it in the trash. #Bitcoin has the potential to become a universal instrument for exchange. 2-nd layer technology just needs a bit more momentum to reach critical mass.
