So you haven't run a Lightning node, have you? Pretty ballsy speaking about something you don't seem to have experience with. I'm being pretty candid in my arguments here. I didn't mention scalability. You are being short-sighted in an attempt to win an argument that doesn't really need to exist. Maximalism is toxic, be it monero or Bitcoin. Stay humble or get wrecked.

Just wanted to say MimbleWimble and Nano are very scalable blockchains. So not all blockchains. Although some may disagree with the tradeoffs they make.
