The lp2 was great but it doesn't stand up to rough treatment.

Thats great!

The dude is nowhere close to reality and never will be. You think hes going to figure out how to get $3/gal?

You'll get there son 👍 This little exchange just demonstrated WHY people prefer monero as p2p digital cash.

(or is that backwards privacy? Forget which is which)

True true. But lets be honest about the number of Bitcoin that goes into coinjoins and the lack of forward privacy. Coming Soon™

Don't be absurd. A standard zerolink coinjoin hides your utxo as a 1-of-5. And what % of Bitcoin goes through a CJ? Right practically none. So your an...

Ooof this is a hard one

I haven't seen it clearly said yet. Monero doesn't use proof-caching like Liquid does. Therefore, it is not susceptible to the same kind of attack. ...

Thats what im saying. You've got a transparent channel open and the 1st hop can see the 2nd. How would you structure this? Obviously you're taking a...

Why? I don't understand what geographic relationships have to do with it.

How would this work though? You get e-cash and use LN to come out to a Utxo?

Do we trust the mint to not notice it's the stolen BTC and rug us?

Let's suppose you are the Liquid hacker and you realized you're set for life if you can just figure out what to do with these 600 BTC. Since LN is su...

But like, who would you open a channel to?

Yeah. Maaaybe move through LN and sell the new utxo for cash.

It's what I would do. Of course, because there's not anywhere near that liquidity anyplace you should expect that you're going to be moving it in smal...

If you're disciplined its possible to launder 600 BTC.

Really hes talking about something else.

Thats a good correction, thanks Its so easy to conflate money supply inflation with price inflation.

People who love something make the best critics of it.

The inflation rate of gold is between 1 and 2%. It's that there are central planners at all and that they lie, not that the lie is a stupid lie.

How in the world.....

Nothing, except it also has additional complexity that could be susceptible to an implementation flaw.

Monero doesnt have the same implementation of CT. Not that you give a shit about actual facts. Just posting to look cool for the anons 👍

Nope. Did you already make one? Maybe i just wasn't patient enough, sometimes they take a second to show up.
