“Free” was something I pushed for at Kraken, it simplifies for users, abuse can be detected, and routing fee revenue is greater than cost.

Playing around with Coinbase lightning integration and just had to mention how insidious it is to use the term 'varies' for lightning as if it's not the cheapest option (unless you decide you want to wrap it for whatever reason)

The reason seems obvious to me that they clearly want to downplay its utility, speed, and affordability to prop up their useless Base ETH L2 🙄 (even though that would wrap it to cbbtc)

Its like they only begrudgingly integrated lightning. Man I really wish they would lean into it.
