What Is Fueling Bitcoins Growth ?
![Why you Should Host Your Own Giveaway.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmTdKnjXbnwn4zUM9KtAU3cRBkTWUk3L1tgaem8b3wniUV/Why%20you%20Should%20Host%20Your%20Own%20Giveaway.png)

Over the last 48 hours we have seen bitcoin continue to climb. The longer this continued climb takes place the more it leads on to believe we are on to a bull run instead of a pump and dump.

What is the key player behind this rally ?

It seems to be ETF speculation in part but more over it seems to be lightning network increasing in size and usage.

The amount of transactions happening on lightning using bitcoin continues to grow the thrive as more sites and more businesses start using it. 

It really does offer exactly what made the bubble burst back in 2017 when fees just got way to high and halted growth of the systems which lead us to where we are today.

This also proves that lightning network was the right move to scale bitcoin and finally after about nearly 2 years we have some real practical solutions to scaling. I don't believe these are the solutions are the final solution to scaling issues but it should allow the network to grow 10x what it was in the last bull run. That could very well spell a $200,000 per bitcoin level.

oh i can confirm they aren't!
As I told before they are two important upgrades for LN growth to be sustainable.
And Schnorr*along with a few upgrades are suppose to come to the main net this year. Making onchain tx fees cheaper and private and quantum resistant(?)
Another thing is the sloving of the sidechain pegging dilemma.

The trend is looking much better both technically and fundamentally as capital continues to flow not only into the crypto but the ecosystem surrounding it.
