What is the best way to swap Lightning to on chain BTC?
Think it’s more likely that miners fight the tax. Win in the Supreme Court if it goes that far - or every data center gets taxed. Goby’s big tech Allie’s get real angry when you tax their cloud data centers simply for operating.
A thoughtful thread on digital monies.

PUBLIC SAFETY
ANNOUNCEMENT
Bitcoin is not private. Lightning is not private. None of it is private enough for effective censorship resistance. Too many people use KYC exchanges to buy. Too many people have no idea how to acquire and spend BTC privately. Much MUCH more work is needed to make it passably private.
If you’re unsure about privacy, then use actual physical cash, gift cards, or Monero to *spend* privately. Save in Bitcoin if you want. Bitcoin is far too transparent if you’re spending it directly on anything questionable. (Legal in the US does not mean legal everywhere, everyone has different threat models.)
Before you want to buy something you can exchange BTC for Monero quite easily with Cake Wallet on mobile or Bisq on your computer. There are other options out there. You don’t have to invest or save in Monero. It’s just a tool you can use to protect yourself from prying eyes.
You are responsible for your privacy. It’s your fault if you don’t do the research. It’s your fault if you get caught doing something the Security State doesn’t like.
Be safe. Protect yourself.
