if the user will never care about this and why are we designing for that? So, like, what, what did Spark enable then?

Ethan MarcusGUEST
I think what we realized is that Lightning as a network cannot be multi-asset, and that, that's, like, one of the big assumptions we made going into this, and it was a very naive assumption, and it's, it's because a lot of people around us made this assumption as well, is that, like, Lightning can scale for multi-asset.

Ethan MarcusGUEST
The reality is that we took years and years and years to make a single asset network work.

Ethan MarcusGUEST
