Found my old account, lightnings failure pushed me to liquid, which pushed me to monero, which is the obvious next step when you want safety and privacy.

That is the way brother 👊
Can't blame you. Monero actually works like it's supposed to.
Monero might work the way it's supposed to, private and affordable, but Bitcoin Cash is the local slut, having more fun with you and all your friends, faster and cheaper, than both Bitcoin & Monero.
What happens when the SATs get lost? I don't get that part, surely someone or something get's the SATs?
Can you explain that part for me?
Also, welcome to XMR
I eventually got some sats back, but they got stuck in limbo during a forced closure that completed while we were experiencing terribly high onchain fees (which was the reason for my attempt to move forward with a trustless lightning option). I fell for the lie that you could run a private lightning node on a pi. Multiple times. Liquid was my next step and it worked beautifully. I would have continued regardless of the federated trust model, but nobody uses it as a currency and moving it into something useable kills all the privacy benefits. By the time fediments came out, i was already too far down the privacy rabbit hole to care about federated custodial lightning solution run by infinitely more incompetent individuals than the liquid network.
