The political angle is more interesting to me, since the Lightning Network is developed by Blockstream, whose investors include:
Reid Hoffman, Khosla Ventures and Real Ventures, Nicolas Berggruen, Crypto Currency Partners, Future\Perfect Ventures, Danny Hillis, Eric Schmidt’s Innovation Endeavors, Max Levchin, Mosaic Ventures, Ray Ozzie, Ribbit Capital, Jerry Yang’s AME Cloud Ventures, Horizons Ventures, AXA Strategic Ventures, and Digital Garage.
Think again, if you REALLY still think Bitcoin (core) is "decentralized".
(For the record, I don't think Bcash is either).
