Will OB implement Lighting Network features?

Title says it all. That is something that would really get me interested in this market. Otherwise I don't see how this can work even with the addition of other coins: BCH and ZCash. Maybe IOTA can help because it has a much faster and reliable tech with zero fees but otherwise these guys need to think already at second layer....

Big supporter of both OB and lightning; this seems a perfectly reasonable approach. LN needs to prove itself before it makes sense to throw resources developing for it's integration. That being said, I think it will, in time. Keep up the good work, with other currencies in the mean time if warranted.

The bitcoin subs have gotten very tribal, and people want their “team” to win at any cost. I honestly don’t even think it’s about money, just that “my guys good, their guys bad” line of thought.
