Bitcoin Cash is what we call Bitcoin now. Lighting is obvious vaporware nonsense that solves only the problem of how to keep Blockstream in control of the GitHub repo they (Adam Back and Greg Maxwell) hijacked years ago.
- petertodd 6y agoIf you want to try Lightning out - and see for yourself whether or not it is vaporware - the easiest way to do that is to get a mobile Lightning wallet such as Eclair (fairly easy) or BlueWallet (easiest) from your appstore. As I mentioned, ManyVids accepts Lightning payments for a real product, as does https://www.bitrefill.com/ https://www.bitrefill.com/ (phone refills, gift cards, etc). For testing with smaller amounts, https://yalls.org/ https://yalls.org/ will let you buy access to blog posts for trivial amounts of money (eg one cent).

Bitcoin Cash market cap of ~$4.8B is good enough for it to be used as P2P Electronic Cash System that Bitcoin was built for.
