Yea basically Liquid is a temporary stop gap for me. I use it to balance channels cheaper. Yea you make a great point Blockchains do not scale and if Liquid ever got popular it would have the same issue of high fees. What projects are exploring fediments to keep an eye on that you recommend? I like this high fee environment because it brings some urgency and discussions around scaling. Self custody for plebs with low amounts definately need a solution because in high fee environment their utxos can't be moved on chain and their tiny lightning channel has the whole channel locked up for reserve for a channel closing.......
