The lightning network is a scam. Be warned.
I urge anybody to try running lnd, c-lightning or even zap GUI.
Get your hands dirty with Lightning and you will see what a load of crap it is.
Ask in their IRC channel for support and you will discover the ugly truth.
All demo wallets have hardcoded routes to well-connected hubs ("Autoconnect" feature)
It's near impossible to receive money. In fact, I offered people up to 1 BTC if they could send me testnet satoshis ... Nobody succeeded.
To receive money you need to a) have money (can't receive more than you put in your channel) or b) have a listening node with no router/firewall
That already excludes almost ALL mobile users as data plans by default block all incoming traffic.
lnd runs at 350% CPU usage when using the "Zap" wallet
The routing is a completely unsolved problem and requires decentralization
I could go on and on, but thats's enough for now ... the whole crypto market will crash and it's only a matter of time.
