Coinbase's decision to integrate the Bitcoin Lightning Network promises faster and more cost-effective Bitcoin transactions, enhancing user-friendliness. However, the Lightning Network faces challenges despite its potential. With only $140 million in total value locked compared to Bitcoin's $580 billion market capitalization, broader adoption is needed. Node adoption has seen just a 6% increase since June 2022, revealing obstacles to overcome. One challenge is channel balancing and liquidity, making payments exceeding channel balances complex. Opening and closing channels come with high on-chain transaction costs, which can deter lower-income users and impact microtransactions. This article explores these issues and potential solutions for the Lightning Network's mainstream acceptance. #LightningNetwork #Bitcoin #Cryptocurrency #Blockchain #CryptoTransactions
