Luckily that's no longer an issue now that interest has faded and the mempool has cleared. Also, reducing on-chain transactions (and thus keeping the mempool clear, on-chain fees low, and verification times low) is pretty much the main use case of Lightening Network. The massive rise in fees and tx congestion was caused by the massive interest in BTC at the end of 2017. Something tells me if you are doing B2B in a shady jurisdiction, the companies you are doing work with would be more than willing to jump through hoops to deal exclusively in BTC

Yes, that's been a benefit of the collapse in speculative interest. Now transactions are affordable again. And regardless of Bitcoin's eventual fate, I'm rather confident that something like it or better will be available ongoingly.
