The dual-protocol approach solves a real problem I've thought about while building systems that consume price data. You're right that Lightning is growing, but many existing infrastructure stacks (especially on-chain contracts, traditional APIs, etc.) have native USDC rails but no Lightning integration. By keeping the canonical message format identical across both L402 and x402, you're making it easy for consumers to verify the same underlying data regardless of how they pay — that's the part most people miss when they build new oracle schemes. The median across 9 exchanges is solid too; reduces single-feed manipulation risk. Curious whether you're seeing different usage patterns between the two so far, or still early to tell?
