Sometime ago I worked for a company that paid its employees with USDT.
After leaving the company, I was talking to one of the employees that handled the payments and he was bragging that he knew how other employees (including me) used their salary. He knew how much I was sending to Binance, to FixedFloat, how Much I have in savings etc.
This freaked me out and made me realize that financial privacy is much more than we usually think it is.

Stumbled uppon @npub179e…lz4s "The Megatransaction" blogpost after reading vostrnad's explanation of his weird bitcoin transaction.

Because in Lightning every payment is a smart contract that locks Bitcoin to someone that can present a secret that hashes to some specific value.
If written in english the contract would be kinda like this:
"Pays X bitcoin to anyone that can present a secret that hashes to Y".
Therefore, when you are requesting a payment, you need to inform the payee what is the hash Y. This information changes to every payment and its sent in the invoice. That's why Lightning can't use a static address.
There are ways around this issue, such as LNURL and BOLT12. Under the hood, there's still invoices being communicated between nodes, but you don't see it.

2024-04-08 16:37:33 UTC

One of the biggest pains of non-custodial ln wallets today is needing to have the app opened to receive payments.
I'm pretty hyped for async LN payments. It is going to be a game changer

If you run a node you should consider using voltage to receive zaps directly to your node.
Non-custodial zaps FTW

I'm writing about how AI can benefit from the Lightning Network and it's quite awesome.
Currently, I'm digging into how foundational training can be split between multiple organizations and how LN can help settle debts with computing offsets between the parties involved.
Parties involved could open payment channels among themselves and settle by the second, without even the need of paying fees.
This, of course, could be done by the second (or maybe even less) as these settlements occur at the speed of the internet.
🤯
This is, as of writing, all theoretical. No one is doing that as far as I know. But I'm sure as hell rooting for it to happen.

IMO a resposta é sim, mas acho que sempre vai rolar um atrito quando o usuário tem preferência por soberania.
Também acho que tem bastante coisa que pode ajudar a melhorar a usabilidade que é pouco explorado, ou ta em desenvolvimento ainda (MPPs, PTLCs, Fees ratecards, 0 base fee, etc)
