So just because i own some Bitcoin I have to pretend like you that major problems don't exist? Liquidity, adoption, and speculation are the main reasons I have any.

You aren't thinking clearly if you can't FUD your own bags.

We have way too much delusional euphoria with BTC maxis like yourself who think Bitcoin has already won.

BTC was originally great because of adversarial thinking. That's almost completely gone now.

It's widely acknowledged that LN isnt private by it's own developers.

Yea man it's been 6 years and Lightning is little different (maybe even worse because of all these custodial solutions). There are major things that can't be improved upon based on deep issues with the nature of lightning itself. OG devs literally quitting because they realize it is unsalveagable without base layer changes.

One of the first wallets to implement lightning discontinued it because of these same reasons:

Fat chance Monero is obsolete anytime soon (if ever)

Like you said - I guess we'll see what happens

You know that's the same 1 guy right?

I don't think bitcoin has won. If it failed tomorrow I'd still be OK (although disappointed)

I think this "discussion" started when you rightly pointed out that liquid is not anonymous. I just think that monero is a sh$tcoin & you seem to be very attached to the need for monero. I think that if you use bitcoin with coinjoins, private lightning channels soon to be pay join or post mix stonewalls you have good enough privacy. So I don't need to look at monero for now.

there is no reason to believe a single thing that comes out of a bitcoin maximalist's mouth about the privacy of the lightning network when not a single DNM has adopted the lightning network.

DNM?

their job isn't to convince you or me that lightning is sufficiently private. their job is to convince darknet market administrators. and they have totally failed.

Maybe they just prioritize sh$tcoins.

Still early days my friend. State attacks might just create the push for more private LN channels

this cargo cult talk doesn't make the world go round
