Manu BTC on Nostr: dude you are all over the place... what is your goal in engaging in this ...
dude you are all over the place... what is your goal in engaging in this conversation?
I was discussing some positive moves that bitcoin could do to improve privacy by default, that people would need to opt-out of. Then another Nostrich said why not use Monero instead. I said why i believe only Bitcoin can stand a chance at fighting the Central Bank cabals. that was a conversation of good faith. not sure what your goal is here?
You talk about conflation that didn't happen in the first place...
now you move the goalposts by saying Lightning cannot scale because it is not adopted??
By your own yardstick:
Monero: according to market data, I see for the last few years there are consistently around 20k transactions a day.
Lightning: impossible to measure since 2 nodes can transact via a channel and it's not easy to transcribe how many transactions have occurred. River did a research with a few major routing nodes and came out at 6 million transactions in 1 month. That's roughly 200k a day.
So what is the F is the point of saying Lightning won't scale, use Monero instead, when the known numbers for lightning alone (plus the millions other txs that cannot be accounted for) indicate a much higher level of adoption than Monero...
