I'm honestly not an expert on lightning, but maybe this is a bit naive?
Let me explain: you're challenging him to find information that is not publicly available (the routes after the last hop). While he cannot get that information, doesn't mean law enforcement couldn't subpoena large node operators (?).

I think the game theory behind Bitcoin as a MoE is that eventually since everyone wants to accumulate Bitcoin everyone will want to get paid in Bitcoin.

Should have specified robosats does not do submarine swaps: they are custodial (at least that's how I remember it)

To be clear: got nothing against Boltz. But just to be aware of the possible alternatives you have for submarine swaps, without having to spin up your own. Bolts here posts a great resource.
You also have robosats which is federated: http://robosatsy56bwqn56qyadmcxkx767hnabg4mihxlmgyt6if5gnuxvzad.onion

The fact that they took the liberty of designing a block like this and did not suffer repercussions (lose hashrate) really shows the magnitude of the problem here.
Satoshi admittedly didn't factor in pooled mining when designing the protocol and it obviously resulted in centralization.
I think @nprofile…282l with Hashpool has come up with a really good idea of how ecash could be used to issue "mining shares" and curb this problem.

Saylor has already turned to a villain:

With KVAC (which I am currently working on) you'd only have to flash 1 single nut (coin) into a card or emulated card. Since it's fixed size, it would almost never fail to write, and would take a constant time for a receiver to process it.
