You just compared LN to PayPal and now talking about a fair comparison even though I showed you facts only.
Are you a troll??
Do you think Bitcoin is the final product with no more updates being done in the future? This takes me back to my previous question: Are you a troll??
Do you know how to read?
Again: Are a a troll??
Addressed the rest above, you obviously skipping the reading part. Try to base your predictions on facts or don't do them otherwise you look like a clown, fighting against possibly the biggest revolution of this century - separation of money & state.

I compared two payment systems, you are comparing two different stages of growth (comparing the scalability of pre-LN bitcoin to post-LN bitcoin). What I am saying is that post-LN bitcoin will not be able to continue to scale. You cannot take the change in scalability due to LN and extrapolate that.

I think that bitcoiners have largely abandoned the idea of upgrade-by-hard-fork since the XT dispute, much to their own detriment. The obvious way to increase the throughput is to increase block size. You cannot continue to expand bitcoin through soft forks like LN. The only way that you will be able to improve without hardforks is through side-chains, which is basically just making a miner-controlled hard-fork with extra steps.
Bitcoin's 1MB block size limit is Do you know how to read?
Whether or not the block size is exactly 1MB is of no consequence. It is too small. If segwit or something has allowed bitcoin to eek out a couple hundred more kilobytes, it does not matter, it is not enough. My argument still stands.

The bitcoin revolution has come and gone. Bitcoiners like you have squandered it with your greed and ignorance. Monero is going to overtake bitcoin, as the monero community has no problem going through all the BIPs and implementing all of the good ideas (ring signatures, confidential transactions, etc.). Now monero actually works as satoshi intended bitcoin to.

I pointed to hard facts. It's you who is competing fact with fiction.

Exactly! That's what you think - more fiction. The fact (something you keep missing) is, at least one hard-fork is planned for the future because we all know it's necessary.
a couple hundred more kilobytes, it does not matter
This all is just in your head - fiction. Try more then double. As I said, keep up because you're losing your argument really badly.

Just in your head - fiction. The fact is, you choose to use Bitcoin just to be here.

More fiction, lol. No, Satoshi intended Bitcoin to be trackable back to the Genesis Block, your shitcoin isn't. Satoshi intended Bitcoin to have a cap on supply, your shitcoin doesn't have.
Asked three times, answer please. Are you a troll?
Or just another shill, using Bitcoin and its community to market the dying shitcoin?

I guess I'm outside the subset of "we all".. so please enlighten me: what hard-fork is necessary? All I can think of is either a) changing the core crypto to be quantum resistant or b) something to do with the 2038 problem
reply
That's the one - 2038 which we're fine until (I believe) year 2106. If there will be a hardfork to fix that, we might bundle more things into it. Cutting satoshi into another 100 million bits could be another one. That would also make new halvings possible - half sat per block, followed by a quarter of sat for years later and so on (21 million would still be intact in this case). Quantum resistance, larger block space and whatever necessary might find its way into that single hardfork too.
I don't pretend to see the future, just thinking of the possibilities. Some shitcoiners don't realise that never is a really long period of time.

If it takes 16 years for bitcoin to be upgraded, then it is futile. I suspect most interest in bitcoin will have largely vanished by then. Bitcoin is only like 13 years old so far.
reply
Bitcoin was upgraded a few months ago - in April 2022. The previous upgrade was in September 2021.
Where exactly have you pulled the 16 years from?? Is it the same place the rest of your predictions are coming from?
Stop trolling and get learn the facts, please.
reply
"Network Upgrade" is synonymous with "Hard Fork"
reply
Again. That's just in your head - fiction.
You can find hundreds more links, each will explain that ANY implemented BIP is an upgrade.
Stop trolling and get learn the facts, please.

You have pointed to a casual observation that fees have decreased since implementation of LN, and extrapolated that forever.

It is still insufficient. Blocksize needs to increase by an order of magnetude.
Satoshi intended Bitcoin to be trackable back to the Genesis Block, your shitcoin isn't. Satoshi intended Bitcoin to have a cap on supply, your shitcoin doesn't have.
This is a cope. Satoshi intended bitcoin to implement privacy features:

Pointed to the past - the only facts we have. You're predicting the future - fiction made in your head.

LOL. Is it you Craig? Go back to your gigamegs and 20 nodes, please. We like Bitcoin to be decentralised.
This is a cope.
You're a cope. You're the one that hates Bitcoin & LN, while using both to market your dying shitcoin.

That's exactly what you do, except you ignore the past (facts) to fit your narrative.
Like a proper troll.
