In its simplest form, businesses built on Lightning need to receive sats. In order to do so, they need channels opened in their direction (inbound capacity). That inbound is a scarce resource because there’s a limited number of sats and a variety of compelling options to open towards.
Pool allows for node runners to sell that scarce resource to buyers (merchants/businesses)💸
