As an individual why should I care?
Benefits to Individuals
- Lower Transaction Fees: Traditional Bitcoin transactions can have high fees, especially during network congestion. The Lightning Network allows for much lower transaction fees, making microtransactions feasible.
- Faster Transactions: Transactions on the Lightning Network are almost instant, unlike regular Bitcoin transactions which can take minutes to hours to confirm.
- Micropayments: The network supports micropayments, allowing individuals to pay tiny amounts, which is impractical with regular NZD transactions due to high fees.
- Control: Transactions on the lightning network are push transactions, not pull transactions so unlike regular card transactions there is much less chance of fraud.
- Improved Privacy: Since transactions on Bitcoin are not subject to inherent surveilance your privacy is much better protected.
