4/.#Lightning fixes this. → 1M TPS.→ Instant finality (sub-second).→ No gas, just sats.→ Micropayments. or even nano-payments, down to fractions of a cent.→ Composable APIs and async payments. It’s simple, fast, and native to Bitcoin—perfect for agents.

3/.Most blockchains? Still too heavy. → Gas fees make small transactions impractical.→ Congestion = variable latency.→ Complex signing models don’t scale well to machine-to-machine use. AI doesn’t want to manage a wallet. It just needs to act.

7/ 🛡️But is Lightning secure? What about double spending or finality? . Great questions. 🔐 Lightning payments are crypto-locked. Once an invoice is paid, it’s FINAL — can’t be reused, forged, or double-spent. PSBTs guarantee atomic settlement . ⚡️ No intermediaries, no.
