Lightning is fast! Real world transactions under a second
734 sats \ 10 comments \ @nout 18 Jan lightning
First I doubled my money on Lightning Roulette by betting on red and then I went shopping to the local farmers market in Uvita with my Phoenix self custodial wallet. 3 out of 4 payments happened under 1 second!!! No kidding. I think I found a trick 😉

That is why it is called lightning. It is very fast. The only problem I have ever had is if I set the fee too low.

With the Bolt Card you can pay sats directly from your own lightning wallet by simply tapping the card on any merchant that supports it, for example BTC Pay Server, or others.
Note that coincorner made available that card for cheap, but you can use any other card with a similar chip. It's not linked to any company in particular.
It is actually faster than a credit card transaction

Zeus mobile very rarely succeeds in under 20 seconds. I am not sure why. Does it have trouble finding routes or routes fail I don't know... I will appreciate some debugging info being shown while the payment is in progress.
