Bitcoin privacy is a very important topic and one that needs to be openly discussed, some groups of people do not want Bitcoin privacy to be openly discussed and only want their privacy tools to be used solely and exclusively (since they make money from it and pay people to spread their use) claiming that the other tools are bullshit.

I always try to open eyes and show that there is life beyond coinjoin, neither coinjoin is so good nor the rest so bad.

Privacy is very complex and not everyone is Snowden, sometimes just using Lightning to send payments is more than enough, atomic swaps are also great from a privacy point of view, cashu is fantastic as is fedi, statechains like mercury as well, payjoin, etc.

There is more life besides coinjoin.

Same thoughts 🤙

Lightning goes a long way 🤝

Privacy on the protocol level is a must. ZK is the standard. Halo 2 is trust less setup.

Coinjoin (or some other obfuscation method) before funding Lightning. Make sure your Lightning wallet is running through Tor (Phoenix has this feature). Send but never receive through this wallet. Pretty good privacy as far as I can tell.

There's value in hiding within multiple crowds & making it even harder for those trying to make sense of the timechain.

Keep the bastards guessing!

There are no solutions, only tradeoffs.
