I've often thought that entities with a lot of capex invested in btc would do well to pursue some higher-order strategies. In other words, if your entire existence depends on btc being worth something -- and in particular, if it depends on it being worth more than it is now, to deal with things like halvings, etc. -- then it would behoove you to try to grow the pie in whatever way you could. Swan seems to do a nice job of this, spending some of their efforts on education, proselytizing, etc.
With that as context, is there any regard in which miners would have a competitive advantage in the lightning ecosystem?
Diversification is good for any business, I just don't think there's anything that transfers over specifically from mining operations to lightning node routing yeild.
