The guy in this fails to understand that if you're buying from an ATM you're spending a shit ton of money for the convenience. So saying that the fees are high are normal, that's like going to an ATM that's not owned by your bank and COMPLAINING that you're paying too much money for it. If you don't want convenience, then just go ahead and buy from Coinbase, Paxful, ETC.

Network congestion is temporary, it will all clear over with more innovation occurring throughout time. But yes, I do think people should be able to easier use BTC and get acquainted to it -- but that does come with time.


Innovation is needed but I think now it's more a matter of pride and stubborness than anything else. To implement and have the lightning network work they estimate the block to be 128MB, so they already know it is needed to increase the size and yet, for reasons I fail to understand, it can't be done now causing the netwrok to collapse

We should make it easy for people to use now, there are a lot of people that because of the exposure that bitcoin is having they are giving it a try, what do you think they will think of bitcoin if they try to buy a $10 pizza and they find themselves pay $45 fee??

things like this https://t.co/2CH0YNple7 make the adoption impossible!

I understand all the lightning and shit that will come out in the future, and I also know that in order to work the lightning will need an increased size of blocks! So why not to make it easy for people to use it NOW that are willing to try?
