Because all the rest is moving on LN.
My LN node is routing like crazy (and is a small one).
Users and in special noobs must understand one important aspect:
From now on, bitcoin will move on LN and onchain will be used EXCLUSIVELY only for opening and closing LN channels. Only few times some big tx with thousands of BTc will be moved onchain, but all the rest will be on LN:

Be prepared NOW, don't waste your time onchain, and have a LN node. Forget about transacting onchain, it will be very expensive.

It's be interested to know how this looks for shitcoins

exchanges supplies are decreasing while the number of long-term holders is increasing. What we like to see!

HODL

any advice on how or where I can learn more about lightning channels and nodes I need to just not be lazy also and do my due diligence haha comment threads r pretty good in this one.

Either you HODLing or fucking around on Lightning or Liquid, watching the blockchain will become more meaningless by the second, especially with LN exchanges now, and once splicing and channel factories show up it will be so hard to sell wtf is going on and making assumptions
