BCH can't
Because it might be a better option to sell ads spots (better than AdSense model for instance), and if it is the potential is huuuuge
Btc is an interesting alt just coz of LN
You say BCH can't, ok then why? Your reasoning doesn't make sense. BCH can, but no one in this community cares enough to create a place to draw dicks on a wall.
For stuff like game play where you deposit funds to use in game, although no real routing as just 2 tx with main hub, but tokeda does this better with token issuer adjusting balances
No it isn't, that's why what they are doing is a very stupid approach for their coin's survival. And yes I agree: in some cases centralization doesn't matter much, though we.....
Exactly, if LN can be used by multiple coins, why is BTC needed? They will just start accepting alt X (fiat tokens) to open channels cheaper than on chain BTC fee & then why use BTC?

Not at all imo, the price run up started July 17th, the same day they announced BCH fork would happen Aug 1st, the price had already started to crash due to UASF up until that point.
I noticed the same thing. Price run-up was to prevent a flippening.
yea i get that but how do i know they are my tx's? all one does with txblaster is send a tip.
If you look at seashells, you will see the message that you state being processed along with the amount you tipped, so you can easily identify your tx's, but it can fly by quick🚀
It's not about drawing dicks on a wall, it's about paying 1 satoshi for each pixel, and being able to rebuy them instantly. It's a different market mechanism than just buying pixels
And why can't BCH do that on-chain? Fees too high?
if the miners want to run his code, they will. if they don't, they won't. but the dude did us all a solid by coding ABC and helping facilitate BCH fork, have a little respect.
I'm highly concerned about the personality cult forming around Wright.
Anyone with a healthy braincell can conclude that the guy is a bullshit artist, yet people still worship him.
So if LN is bad, what kind of channels would you prefer? Just simple channels without routing?
Yes, payment channels have many use cases, even centralised routing though a single hub is not so bad for certain use cases. But is LN exclusive to BTC?
I'm a BCH fan myself, and I think all use is welcome. I think Lightning is great for some things, but I don't like the way it's sold as an alternative to nearly all on-chain....
Channels are good for some things, LN is just a load of bollox, it's not P2P, and is nothing more than fractional reserve 2.0 in the making.
I don't get why Amaury thinks going around convincing devs to accept his pre-consensus proposal is a good idea. If he really thinks its important he should convince the miners. What are the other non-miners gonna do?
What does the BCH community needs ? Is there a list somewhere so that coders can help ?
what is your skillset? what can you build? let people know what you can do, i am sure many non-devs have ideas, you can then pick & choose where to spend your time
Is there a site where I can answer questions asked by people in exchange of bch ? I think the community needs something like that for very specific questions. Something like answer-for.cash could be a fun name
