You can't do a 1 cent transaction with Bitcoin either. The future is fee less cryptocurrencies.

  Of course you can- Lightning works today. If you don't believe me, our team hacked together https://ln.pizza https://ln.pizza as a demo of the tech.

    Isn't there a Bitcoin fee to open/close a channel and then the fees involved sending via lightning nodes? Also the routing problem is starting to become an issue with the network at just ~5000 nodes - How will it scale to millions? Of course these are just the technical issues, there are others concerning centralization which always seems to end up in a monopolistic end game that end up with consumers having no choice but to pay.

  This is exactly why I used "cryptocurrencies" instead of Bitcoin. Cryptocurrencies has the potential to solve it, it doesn't means that they all do.

    Thanks for clarifying, we're in agreement there.
