If only there was a solution to avoid the encroaching regulation👀

@stefan_21 Emigrate? This is absolutely not a problem that Bitcoin could solve, because the point here is that you want to send money to family members FREE OF CHARGE.

@Soprano You can with Bitcoin too :)
Simply use Lightning to send money around the world in seconds at almost zero cost.

@stefan_21 What does almost mean? There are always exchange and network fees.

@Soprano yes, in Lightning you pay a few Satoshis per transaction. So less than 1 cent :)

@stefan_21 So I can transfer €10,000.01 there via Lightning and the recipient then receives €10,000?

@Soprano Yes and no. Lightning currently generates around 4-5k€ in value. For more, you still have to use the main layer.
However, Lightning is already very suitable for smaller amounts.
Strike as a payment service provider already enables euro and dollar transfers to some countries, for example.
The way it works is that the euros or dollars are exchanged for Lightning - then sent around the world - and exchanged back at the destination and credited to the recipient.
I think this has a lot of potential for the future, but amounts as large as 10k upwards probably won't work at the moment :)
