The use of payments in the digital token economy is a topic of conversation in the crypto community. According to Bitfinex CTO Paolo Ardoino, the growth of the Lightning Network is not deterred by market conditions.
“Cryptocurrency adoption is growing at an ever-faster rate. Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin recently suggested that cryptocurrency payments are superior and a big boost to international business, charity, and everyday transactions, just for your convenience,” Ardoino said.
He then added: “The Lightning Network is one of these solutions. The steady and accelerating growth of the Lightning Network is undaunted by market conditions, demonstrating the increasing user confidence and utilization of the network as it matures.”
“Improvements in the speed, capacity, and affordability of the Lightning Network will push Bitcoin into the mainstream and help bring in millions more users,” he concluded.
