Brian. ✅ 21-second onboarding.✅ 21 satoshis.✅ < 1 second payment. When Lightning?.
The next step for crypto is to make payments instant and free globally. This will take lots of work from all of us, Coinbase included, getting layer 2's integrated, better on-ramps, simpler UX/onboarding, etc. A magic threshold would be getting the average payment under 1 cent.
