Yes, sure thing. I'm not talking about end users, it's more about node runners and the ability they have to operate guaranteeing a service. Can you recognize some disadvantages for people running nodes where hardware, internet, and electricity are not taken for granted as they are in the West?
reply
right ok, but then your low numbers for e.g. Kenya is just an indication of that (hardware, internet access/electricity etc) since Lightning nodes must be always-on.

Correct, the point of this post is to highlight the fiat discrepancies somehow mirroring in the Lightning Network

no, I don't mean just IP... I mean, Lightning will work as well for me if there is a node in my country as when there isn't... BECAUSE it's global and big and the networks (neither Bitcoin nor Lightning) don't care about national borders
Like, the liquidity in Kenya is irrelevant, no?
