Do you really have to wait for a block confirmation just to buy a cup of coffee? That’s exactly what the Lightning Network aims to solve.
At its core, the Lightning Network moves a large number of small, frequent payments off-chain. Only opening and closing a channel require on-chain transactions, easing the burden on the main chain and saving on fees.
Don’t laugh—I only learned this after getting burned myself.
It’s okay to go a little slower. Staying alive matters more than how much you make in a single trade.
