If you were using blinded paths I would not be able to tell the final recipient, so LN can already be more private for receivers 🕶️
I want to congratulate nostr:nprofile1qqszfn67p6jlle0qsj7lwx2l0ylxpse83e0x56qe5euxtwgwnyzdfqgpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnww5q3vamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwdehhxarj9e3xzmnyswfy07 for finding an LN transaction and posting it
Let's see info he learned:
- sender? Himself -- assuming he sent from a self-custodial wallet, he even knows the address or channel of the sender, wow!
- recipient? He knows the recipient's communication pubkey, node, and node name -- though not learn the address or channel that received the money
- Amount? 69 sats
- Fee? less than 1 sat
That's a lot of info! More than I'd get from analyzing a monero transaction.
Reading this back, it sounds sarcastic; it's not, I am being genuine: this really is more info than I'd get from analyzing a monero transaction, and it motivates me to work on making LN better. Thanks Kevin!
