OpenNode is a lightning network software company that rejected Roger ver’s $1.25million offer to change their work from Bitcoin (BTC), to Bitcoin Cash (BCH). OpenNode stated, “Our vision of a better and more open financial system can only be achieved with Bitcoin.”
Roger Ver attacked the Lightning Network and its followers in a video. He pointed out that on-chain scaling of Bitcoin Cash using Lightning Network would take more than 100 years while off-chain scaling would take only 40 years.

OpenNodes’ recent split between Bitcoin Cash (Bitcoin Cash) and Bitcoin S.V. might be one reason for OpenNodes’s decline. According to the firm they chose BTC for these reasons only:
“Bitcoin’s blockchain is a decentralized cryptographic network that has not been compromised or hacked since its inception. It is the longest-running, most secure, and liquid blockchain. Because we want to protect our users, we only offer businesses the ability to accept Bitcoin.
BTC vs BCH
BCH supporters believe that BCH’s network represents Satoshi Nakamoto’s vision of peer to peer electronic cash. They claim that BTC supporters lack “common sense” to implement changes to improve the protocol. Roger Ver’s criticism stems from the same sentiment.
The BTC community asserts that BCH is trying mislead people by its revisionist history. By buying domains like Bitcoin.com or the Twitter handle @Bitcoin they are trying to make it seem that Bitcoin cash is the original Bitcoin.
We all know which OpenNode side it is. Every true believer in Bitcoin believes that the protocol can scale to become one of the most widely-used payment options on the planet, despite its limitations.
