As a summary:

  • this guy simulated some 400,000 payments over a large Lightning Network
  • almost all payments worked out fine. Outfall is higher for the micro payments
  • there are some technical difficulties but the concept of Lightning Network seems to function
  • the code used for the simulation could be improved (crashed before reaching 500,000 simulated payments)

I love the guys that actually tinker with the system.
