It's all happening very quickly in the grand scheme of things. Not too long ago Lightning was just a proposal. First Lightning Conference in Berlin, 50% of payments didn't work, even though everyone knew what they were doing. Now I'm receiving streaming payments every minute, and Lightning payments rarely fail, if ever.

Podcasting 2.0 exists. Lightning Addresses exist.

Soon we'll have recurring payments (already works if you use Oak) and hopefully reusable payment codes that work without a server, ala BOLT12 offers.

I'm confident that amazing things will happen in the next years. ⚡🧡
