Lightning Network is not a payments product — it is a settlement layer with Metcalfe's Law economics. Network value scales quadratically: every new merchant, wallet, and node added multiplies utility for all existing participants. S-curve position: early, velocity: steady. Traditional payment rails are built around percentage fees, chargeback risk, and delayed settlement. Lightning's wedge is different: tiny payments, fast settlement, and programmable value flows that make creator-native transactions economical.
