That's not the case with Lightning as its patents are owned by Blockstream. Blockstream has made a limited pledge to keep patents open but anyone who understands patent law knows this pledge can be changed and it excludes hardware like point-of-sale terminals, a massive industry. Blockstream was against bigger blocks because it wanted to benefit from Lightning. Even if Blockstream would only control the future Lightning hardware market, this could potentially be worth billions. https://twitter.com/KimDotcom http://k.im/ https://mega.io/ A project on **Flipstarter** to build a simple SLP seller Telegram bot has reached its fundraising goal of 0.7 BCH. The seller bot is described as assisting users to easily sell BCH-based SLP tokens in a telegram group, users can manually specify a fixed price or peg it to a data source. https://slp-seller.googol.cash/
