finally, a sane solution for micropayments for content.

you can see a sort of proof of concept (pre-lsat, but using lightning) on yalls.org and a few other similar toe in the water type sites.

but I think if LSAT gets traction it has the potential to turn the content industry upside down.

it is still very very early days.

The lightning network whitepaper states a block size of 155mb is required for lightning to work at scale. Bitcoin has a 1mb block size with no hope of it ever increasing. I dont see this as a solution at all.
