If you think people, who are already using Bitcoin, won't jump at the efficiency of a properly functioning Lightning network, you're the one who needs to get real. > If they were smart they'd just move on to an altcoin and leave Bitcoin, at least till LN is up and proven working at scale on mainnet. I suppose you think (or know of) ANY of the alts have solved this problem while retaining the properties of Bitcoin that it was invented for? If you do, please let us all in on the secret.
