So monero is not as private as we thought ?
Discussion
Watch "Breaking Monero". Its flaws are well documented for years.
Monero protects the privacy of the user. If you run a criminal enterprise you need to take care of the anonymity as well which means bullet proof OpSec.
Monero can only protect you that far. With FCMP++ Monero gets rid of its currently weakest link. It still means that without good OpSec people are leaking incriminating meta data right and left.
In today's world neither Monero nor LN alone are good enough to protect you. They are mere tools.
If my life was on the line I'd choose Monero with a couple of precautions over LN anytime.
I love that LN is stateless and I am looking forward to see payment channels on Monero. The less permanent data there is, the better.
This also needs to take in account the data that can be intercepted. Only because LN is stateless doesn't mean CA companies and intel agencies aren't running massive nodes collecting data permanently.
I know the real reason why people never get caught selling drugs via lightning
At this point we need to encourage some BTC maxi to try their luck with a LNDNM. It'll be a great chance to learn a couple of things.
I know you have a strong detaste of LN, while I am just curious. All things should be tried and potentially competing with each other.
Thanks to tail emission I don't need to worry that any custodial or non custodial off chain transacting will kill the coin. Unlike Bitcoin.
