Hello all,
one argument I often read on this mailing list is that it's essential to
reward miners with transaction fees at some point to secure the network.
Off-chain transactions, whether it's Lightning or something else,
potentially extract fees, which may otherwise be paid to miners, if the
transactions were actually on-chain.
In this context, wouldn't it be contradictory, maybe even harmful, to
aim for an environment, where some/many/most transactions are off-chain?
I have not yet seen this conflict addressed in the recent discussions.
