Technical question here:

Doesn’t #lightning make mixers obsolete?

Say I open a channel and initiate a loopback transaction to a different wallet. Wouldn’t I then send the money through the onion routing and receive it somewhere else, making it impossible to trace… all at a lower fee than a mixer? Then one could just close the channel and do whatever with the new wallet…

Don’t have the need to do that, just wondering if my understanding is correct.

Please bear in mind though, I’m not a coder… just an idiot trying to learn…
