The guy had 350 bucks received via Lightning Network but he can't even close the channels to actually withdraw the bitcoins.

The thread is 4 days old now but it says here:

...that he still have only managed to close 5 channels, so 0.03318599 BTC (USD 282.72) is STILL locked up in Lightning Network several days later

what a joke this complicated mess of a system is. we can't be thankful enough that BCH exists if this is BTC's idea of scaling

yeah some BTC jerks aren't adapting their transaction fees to BCH and as a result this happens.

the problem isn't on Bitcoin Cash's side, it's just BTC people coming over that are used to BTC fees and haven't adapted to just 1 sat/byte yet.

uh, did you read my question?

>>9092429
yeah i know. it's just strange to not say it's worldwide since you CAN use it worldwide even if it's super expensive for people in some places.

Who cares about prices, doesn't change the fact that BCH is going to kill BTC in less than 5 years.
