Bitcoin 2020 & Beyond w/ Neha Narula & Elizabeth Stark

At Messari's Mainnet virtual event, Neha Narula Director of the Digital Currency Initiative at MIT Media Lab's, and Elizabeth Stark, co-founder and CEO at Lightning Labs, talked about Bitcoin's and Lightning Network's present and future, development progress, community adoption, key issues and upcoming as well as existing use cases and applications.

"One thing that surprised me was finally realizing that the speed of development and what it is is a feature and not a bug. Things going relatively slowly and it taking a while to get major changes in and to get things reviewed - that is the way that it should be when you're building quality... You have to get the base layer right," said Neha when wrapping up the conversation.

"I can't wait to see what people build...I think this is only the beginning," added Elizabeth Stark.
