Yeah valid point thank you.
Discussion
i mean kinda
monero has provable supply.
its more complicated to prove and that additional complexity could be a concern.
theres a lot of nuance but I'll leave it at that.
but meanwhile there are new exploits discovered on LN implementations like every month that effect privacy or access to funds.
maybe not exploits that involve loss of funds (but sometimes!)
also exploits that could tie them up and make them difficult to claim onchain.
homie will never mention that because for whatever reason he just wants people to use it.
i contend LN will likely be a good privacy layer in another few years
but its still basically beta software right now.
Lightning’s flaws are well known, I’m not going to deny them.
And no Monero does not have provable supply. That’s the trade off you get for your privacy - you cannot know.
Thus Monero’s inability to be money for the masses is less understood. Its advocates just push their privacy agenda and ignore that it will never become global money because no-one can trust issuance and that it hasn’t been or won’t in future be diluted.
Anyone pushing Monero is pissing into the wind. They’re wasting people with a real agenda’s time just because they want to be able to buy their weed anonymously.
It’s childish and pathetic and there’s good reason I just mute them all. Monerobros are over in the corner fighting the Oompa Loompas whilst Bitcoiners try to take down Leviathan - thanks for your help, retards.
you are just incorrect re supply guarentees.
and I'll explain why if you're interested.
but not feeling hopeful.
Bitcoineirs are working WITH the Leviathan, hence Trump and El Salvador and "bitcoin strategic reserves"
meanwhile monero is making it so governments cannot exist, and getting banned for it. We are not the same. It may start with weed, like bitcoin did with silk road, but it ends in the total death of tyranny :dismantle: :black: :ancap_gadsden:
Ask BTC Sessions how those transparent and traceable Bitcoin donations to the Canadian truckers faired against the leviathan.
"Knock knock, it's your friendly neighborhood leviathan! Thanks for the coins! And thanks for making it so easy for us! HFSP!"
