Do people still think the original bitcoin is still clunky? She was talking about the Yen when it was strong, wow. Its been a long time since then. I guess Japan is really picking up on Bitcoin, now that other company is investing in it.

BTC original is still clunky for small retail payments and while LN provides a potential solution the fiat legacy powers (govts and bankers) have all but closed down use of Bitcoin in any form as a MoE. As a SoV Bitcoin does now have some obvious utility and proven track record but the ETFs are steadily reducing the volume held by people directly and increasingly building the case for a ban or quasi ban on private custody.
