Final thought of the day.
Blockchains don’t always function as money; you might use them to buy a car—a purchase you can wait days for—but they aren’t suitable for buying bread; the baker can’t wait 10 minutes or more.
Payment has to be instant; only Bitcoin offers this. If Monero aspires to be money, it also needs a Layer 2 solution.
Lightning is underrated
