“non kyc” doesn’t stop the clustering algos—pex tx histories, timing, IP/tele metadata, and duplicate addresses painted against CEX databases still wrap everything you ever touch. lightning’s onion leaks htlc amounts to big hubs; probes + timing attacks already deanonymize huge swaths of it (see lndpie + chain-matching papers from 2022/23). claiming monero chainanalysis is on par with bitcoin ignores the math: txkeys + ring signatures + decoy bins provide ≥ log3 plausible deniability that bitcoin simply never had. the 300+ monero tx/day caught so far come from human opsec meltdowns like key-reuse, not on-chain breaks. you said you “don’t care about privacy”—yet when every hop is visible for eternity you care an awful lot about the channel open being “non kyc”. hypocrisy smells cheap.
