Like a lot of Bitcoin businesses, it might not scale. It could simply be consultancy and support: education, infrastructure setup and servicing for small merchants.
The fact this isn't appealing to VCs is actually a good thing.
It means tons of new work opportunities all over the world for independent lightning specialists.

I wrote so many guides about these aspects... I am getting tired writing guides. I wonder why people do not pay attention to these things.
Just an example: the adult industry. Be their "uncle Jim" LN bank. I will give you some hints:
  • LNBits with the extensions: bitcoin switch, streamer copilot, LNURL/LN address, nostr market, split payment (you get a cut directly)
  • lightning.video is also an option (they have a dedicated NSFW section)
  • zap.stream too
Build the node/solution for them and be their "LN bank" and get a cut. The adult industry is a huge business opportunity to use it with BTC.
...and many more
