 i rather dump on wallstreet in this cycle, lightning promised much and delivered little, bitcoin has no privacy and no decent scaling solution is in sight.  sad to say that, but that is it. 
 It has enough privacy in my opinion. I don't want to trade drugs and weapons with it and I don't think of myself as an enemy of the state but as a bureaucrat in the kingdom to come. In the far future Bitcoin lightning will fuel the banking system (this is already similar to lighting, but any participant is required to be licensed and everyone cheats) and nations will issue Bitcoin backed money (e.g. using ecash or the like). I'd continue to hodl. 
 zero privacy is enough privacy?  ok
