At $50, you would have to make 100,000 *free* LN transactions to recoup the cost of using BTC instead of BCH. 27 year payback!

Median fees for BCH are $0.0005. If BTC become popular again we'll see fees get back to $59. A person would have to make 10 transactions a day for 27 years before they'll finally start realizing some benefit from using LN.

The design intent for BTC is to have high fees for on chain transactions.
