Even if 1 billion people only topped up once per week that would be 140m on chain transactions per day.
If they topped up once per year that would be 3m on chain transactions per day. They would only be able to top up once every 10 years, which is basically never.
Am I missing something?
Lightning question: not your keys not your coins, so you shouldn’t store too much in a lightning wallet. If lightning takes off you might have to top up your lightning wallet daily from a Bitcoin wallet. Aren’t those transactions on chain? What happens if 1 billion people want to top up their lightning wallet daily? Bitcoin only supports about 200k tx/day.
