Comment on Seeing how cheap it is to send Bitcoin over lightening
masterofballs@exploding-heads.com 1 year agoI don’t know. I’m not that knowledgeable on shit coins. But I hear lightning transactions made a lot of other coins kinda pointless. Many of the Bitcoin forks were made for cheaper transactions.

from what I remember the Bitcoin core folks wouldn’t increase the block size which led to slow expensice transactions on chain. Bitcoin cash forked to have cheap fast transactions on chain. Bitcoin core then created the off chain “lightning network” to solve their broken on-chain problem. so it didn’t really seem to add much to the equation. some of us basically view bitcoin::bitcoin-cash as reddit::lemmy I guess as an analogy. or maybe something like monero is better instead

monero seems to be a all around better coin. But most places don’t sell it.
