You send $100 over Lightning instantly, not by trusting a central bank, but by opening a two-way payment channel on the blockchain. Your balance moves off-chain for speed, only returning to the main ledger when you close the channel. Since Bitcoin just hit $82k, using this layer 2 solution keeps your transaction fees negligible.
