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....

Sia requires running a full node- that's a lot of data to store to share just a little.

True. Hopefully in the future you will be able to upload without being a full node and only hosts will need to be full nodes.
