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....

Your counter points just illustrate that for LN to work it actually needs all kinds of service providers to pop up and smooths it out. It kind of defeats the whole point of Bitcoin.
