I think Nostr is what will complete LN. LN isn’t a full payment solution, it’s back end shit

I can’t get behind Monero. I’m skeptical about tail emissions (and anonymity.. auditing is a major strength of a public blockchain so long as leadership exists (forever)). I prefer a deflationary currency like BTC. But maybe transaction fees in the future would change my mind.

Pseudonymity is sufficient especially if we can reduce the influence of “government” (fascists, commies, tyrants, etc). But again maybe tx fees will make me change my mind. And there isn’t any denying that LN does what it is supposed to. Unlike other even less baked solutions.

This is why I used to like shitcoins like BCH, BTG, and IOTA. I guess it is why anyone liked shitcoins. Bitcoin has scaling problems that we will face. I highly doubt anything else can compete with USD and BTC. Except Monero because you have to use it for cybercrime (and I assume all crime eventually). If law didn’t exist, neither would Monero, or any other obsession with privacy.
