OT

I heard from a friend that a few months ago or whenever the Binance ban happened there was some kind of a mining battle. During this period smaller payments weren't getting into the block which dynamic blocks are meant to fix. Can't verify, but I think your boy (saberhagen?) mentioned something similar.
Imagine monero were used like we're zapping on nostr today (micro payments) it would fall apart.

I only have a tiny setup at home. Its a nerdaxe. I tried with braiins and they paid out about 30 sats consistently a day. With Ocean I was getting more per block found, but they've recently increased their hash rate so now I'm getting about 30 sats per block.
Also when fees spike it changes the payout.
I haven't done any serious testing to see which one pays more. I kinda like the Ocean model and want them to get at least 1% of the hash rate. Thats why I'm mining with them instead of solo mining.
You can give it a go for a month and see which one pays more.

I think they have bigger fish to fry. There's still a cost to take someone down.
If you don't do anything like KYC'D base layer bitcoin it exposes you to $5 wrench attacks and social engineering attacks too. You have to do something to at least stop this.
I meant the individual mint. You have an anonymity set of everyone in that particular mint. Yes, its custodial so that's the trade off. There is apparently a way to pay a LN invoice from various mints but I think it isn't released yet.

Look, if the FBI or other 3 letter agencies want to find out all your financial activity they'll probably be able to no matter the source of money you're using. What I'm saying is that LN is good enough and its getting better. There's unannounced channels, multi part payment and trampoline routing. More recently (and yet to be fully rolled out) are bolt12 and blinded paths. Then there's also all the ecash mints which give an anonymity set of all the users in the mint.
There are other tools too. Coin joins like join market and wasabi (joinstr also in testing phase). There are state chains and UTXO swaps. There's liquid, there's silent payments and there is payjoin.
There will be more too. I'll admit that it is slow but eventually there will be privacy focused wallets that do a lot of this in the background giving the user the "landing" your meme suggests. For now there's some hoops to jump through.
I don't really have a problem if people want to hold bitcoin and whenever they need to spend they swap into XMR for the payment. I just don't think its necessary and you definitely don't want to be holding it for too long. It also doesn't guarantee absolute privacy (especially for noobs).

Generally I only spend with LN. If it needs to be more private, you can use an ecash mint.

I have a variety of LN wallet that I use for different purposes. Yes, zapping on nostr is custodial which I keep a small amount of sats. Sometimes its nice to know who zapped you so you can return the favor.
Where's the evidence of surveillance in a noKYC'd UTXO that does a few coin join rounds and then opens an unannounced LN channel?
I believe that you can get good privacy with bitcoin. It's just a few more steps. There's really no need to use monero.

Sh$tcoiners love to ignore lightning.
If some rando on the internet says its not private also doesn't make it so.
LN is good enough. Its growning, its instant, and its getting better. You don't need to use sh$tcoins.
