People who have used Monero have found that privacy is not friction at all. It is seamless, and just works. And just another “the business owner is just using it wrong!” from the Lightning Network shills. He’s using fucking Square! Everyone who ever abandons LN is just a FUCKING RETARD that is MANAGING LIQUIDITY WRONG. Well, I guess I’m a fucking retard that is using it wrong because I am not tolerating using a fucking payment network with a 5%+ failure rate in the real world, when using the *most used LN vendor software* made by the *billionaire developer that is the public face of owning the most Bitcoin himself*. “The bartender needs to have the right settings in his lnd config” do you know how you people sound? Like I hear this shit and think you should be instantly shoved into a locker. View quoted note →

This is the best criticism of eCash. I like Paul and his criticisms of Lightning are excellent, and drivechain is definitely a better model for scaling Bitcoin than LN, but the actual implementation seems to not have us ending up with money that “just works”. I need money that just works in the same way consistently, not a toolbox. View quoted note →
