Indeed, all Bitcoin blocks today are full. There is no physical possibility to withdraw all those funds. That's why Binance must implement Lightning deposits/withdrawals, like Kraken did.

Adding L2 chains to this equation dumps the frying pan into the fire. We don't need more points-of-failure, it's bad enough as-is.

Inability to process more than 5 tx a second for entire world is a major point-of-failure that L2 chain cures.

Should’ve just increased the blocksize, instead of implementing some crap L2 solution.

Thats the same as to say: let's buy a couple more servers rather than replace bubble sort in our code by qsort.
