I work on LN because it is useful
ECash is just retarded virtue signaling
Discussion
Virtue signal amplifying.
Have you seen eHash where you blind sign every share? I hope it can answer the question : "how do you know the pool is not debasing you?"
I don't care about any crypto nonsense, it's not interesting, it's completely useless in any trusted or custodial context... total distraction for tinkerers that can't stick to a long term vision like real Bitcoin
Some share that same opinion about lightning. LSP's are trusted third parties.
Do you share this opinionn about LN?
Some people are retarded.
Is an LSP trusted if you pay it out-of-band in hopes they open a channel in return? Absolutely.
Fortunately, LSP is just a made-up term by some company, that is now reselling blockstream cloud nodes. Coincidence? LSP's aren't a real thing in the protocol, you don't need one... you can just open a channel like you would make any other chain transaction.
Whataboutism doesn't address the fact that circle-jerk-coins don't improve anything... just mindless cope for pedantic fetishists that were too dense to bother understanding the profundities of Bitcoin.
So lightning scales globally and trustlessly? Hooray! Deferred on-chain transactions for everyone.
Lightning doesn't have to be perfect for ECashers to be complete morons, but that said it does scale sufficiently and trust is optional.
Whatabout Lightning all day if you want, it won't change the fact that ECash doesn't improve anything. Just another retarded custodial shitcoin that skates by on privacy virtue signaling by the same retards that think they're private behind Tor and their CIA run VPN.
waste of time to argue with with zealots
