Not long ago I taught a friend to buy through Robosats and to use Lightning and Boltz together with Liquid (When there are high fees in chain), for him it is magic, every time he uses it he sends me a message saying how fantastic it is and how can it be that people do not realize, he has no computer skills, so everyone can.

Bitcoin already has everything, no shitcoin is needed, the only thing that is needed is that people use it, with what there is right now, Bitcoin + Lightning + Liquid can be scaled perfectly.

When people start using this new world they realize the friction of the old world, the fiat feels stupid.

Would you mind pointing to sources where I could learn this as well?

Thanks, that I know. I wanted to know more about Liquid cheap sats as well as Boltz. 😅

Making a transfer on the banks' website is much more difficult than using Bitcoin + Lightning + Liquid through Boltz. 🤦‍♂️

Been hearing a lot of good reviews about Boltz.

Haven't actually used the service but played around with its interface. It's so simple and noob-friendly. Massive props to them.

The issue I have with robosats is that you need to tell the fiat overlords that you are making some transaction with someone, which does lots of transactions with a lot of people. Insert banking AI and sooner or later you will be flagged and the Man will be out to get you.

that's not a robosats problem, it's a fiat digital infrastructure problem.

you could use robosats to organize an in-person cash transaction that the fiat overlords don't know about. But if you insist on using one of the various digital rails available to you then yes, you're going to incur whatever surveillance exists on those rails.

Yes, that might work in the big cities, but not in the ass hole part of the world where I live. I can buy decent tomatoes over here though

do you see my point though?

how is this a complaint about robosats and not about the fiat world?

Yes, sure

But it is getting harder and harder to hide from those fucks.

completely agree and it sucks

if your alternative is earning it, more power to you

Unfortunately it is not

Is boltz the swapping mechanism you recomend for sending to cold storage?

Yes, you use Tor so that your ip is not registered.

Will do. Used a VPN first time but will make sure to go the extra mile

Doesn't Boltz charge a very high commission though?

It depends on the direction of the swap, it can be 0.1%, 0.25% or 0.5% but you can do a little trick to save that 0.5%.

Oh. I was under the impression it was much higher.

What is the trick to save?

From lightning to bitcoin is 0.5%.

From Lightning to liquid 0.25% and from liquid to bitcoin 0.1%.
