I believe the Bitcoin technology is wonderful and have a lot of potential to be a global payment channel. To achieve that, however, it must develop things like the Lightning Network and then make them be highly adopted.
I wonder if the recent price rise and the publicity it comes along cant generate a lot of expectations by new investors and users that wont be achieved in the short term. If that happens it may be that when the LN is developed, those users and investors have lost the interest in Bitcoin. They may say “oh, that bitcoin thing AGAIN?”
What do you guys think?
