First purchase of goods using lightning network is completed One new scene in bitcoin history

It seems that purchasing for the first time using Lightning Network which is supposed to raise the processing performance of bitcoin remarkably is completed. According to a user who wrote to the online bulletin board Reddit,he ordered a VPN router on the net and settled it using a lightning network.

Lightning network is attracting attention as a mechanism to increase the processing capacity of bitcoins by installing payment channels outside the blockchain.

According to the Reddit user, it is said that the site called TorGuard (Torguard) is accepting BTC settlement using lightning network and this purchase is seen.

 According to a post on the bulletin board, the user opened a channel on the lightning network and was able to do immediate settlement without any commission.

"I was a regular bit coin enthusiast and had a short time last weekend, so I decided to contact TorGuard tweet and contact him about it (VPN service) about the monthly subscription, It taught me the peering connection information of the network, opened a channel, then got a bill and carried out settlement.It was fast, easy, not bothersome and the most important thing is (immediate payment) It was done to the fee was free! "

After this information got lighted, TorGuard urges the user to notice that the c-lightning network is not yet in the "commercialization" stage. In addition, the company says it will guarantee the deductible money if the user who settled using the lightning network loses the price by any chance.

 It seems this time that the purchase of goods was done using the lightning network this time is the first case, as in the case when pizza was purchased for the first time with bitcoin in 2010, a big milestone for the development of bitcoin.

In the last few years, transaction fees for bitcoins have soared and small settlements are virtually impossible, and users have switched to other virtual currencies.

Lightning network realizing immediate settlement with no fee has the possibility to re-enable small payment using bit coins.
