yeah but again let's say I have bitcoin on cash app which has lightning functionality. can't I send it from there to Phoenix for barely any money? So I pay wayy less fees?
If you have btc on Cash App, and CA has existing channels with Phoenix w/ sufficient capacity, and they don't mind using that capacity to service your tx, then yes, you might be able to send cheaply and not worry about it. But someone is paying for the channel opens / closes, and that entity will eventually pass those costs onto you. No free lunch.
