I got into crypto in 2013
most Bitcoiners are stingy people that just want to use it as gold and not as money. They dont really care about spending it and therefore the UX of using bitcoin as money is bad.
It is hard to get them to spend their money, So why bother trying to implement btc and LN as a payment processor? It has a bad developer experience, a bad user experience and there is not much to gain from it.
at least something is happening in Ethereum. There are innovations happening in UX there and there is a creative, positive vibe in the community. Meanwhile in Bitcoin people just “debunk scams” all day and nothing gets done. Still lots of things need to be improved.
That being said: I still keep an open mind. Maybe there is a way to build something useful with LN. Please let me know if you have an idea.
