It's a matter of net benefit. Having these tools is a net benefit for society, even if that means some people use to do some bad things. LE has a legitimate interest in targeted surveillance if there is probably cause and a judge signs of on it. Mass surveillance however is unacceptable and must be made technologically impossible.

Bits or sats, exchanges just need to start showing a large number when people buy btc. Unit bias is real.

Yeah it's a bit clunky but worth looking into it. First lightning wallet I feel comfortable using instead if xmr. For most things at least.

Have you looked into Zeus? Only lightning wallet with acceptable privacy from the LSP.

What bitcoin was meant to be. Bitcoin went in another direction and that's fine.

Yes, I was referring to holding stables and swapping that to monero and then spending all of the monero.

Ah you buy just the right amount of monero at an exchange (plus a bit for fees) and send that to the person you are paying? Could also keep a balance in a stablecoin and swap what you need to monero then.

Devil's advocate: what if we do a hardfork of bitcoin that is private. Every holder gets an equivalent amount of private bitcoin and yes, the institutions dump and crash the price but we have instant wide distribution of a privacy coin. Where does my proposal fail?

You can't update the protocol at that point because the economic nodes will never support that fork.

You mean like doing a swap from bitcoin to monero and having that monero being send to the person you are paying? Doesn't that count as a sale and trigger cap gains?
