Yes but without transparency we can't verify, why not have both? Or bitcoin and coinjoin/mixing there are solutions to privacy but money and privacy are two different things and I think the priority i...
If it isn't fungible I wouldn't regard it as money 💁♂️
when the buyer requests to purchase something, can you inspect the buyer, decide he looks like a bitch, and refuse to fill the order? what do you see?
Yes you get an offer each time and you have to accept it to move forward. You can then also negotiate with him or ghost him if you like 👍
have you (or your friend's pet hamster) ever actually needed to use this process and how did that go?
is there room to exercise discretion over which buyers you will accept for an order? are there di...
I only been scammed with paying directly once.
Buyer moves first. Good thing to check the sellers reviews and when in doubt ask about escrow for first time trades.
Maybe @nprofile1q... can give you insights in escrow dispute situations 🤔

If you choose escrow you have a mediator which resolves conflicts. With direct payment you have no recourse.

Depends on how you use it. It can either keep you stupid, or it can make us smarter 😏

I don't think the question is monero vs btc-lightning.
The question is monero vs monero with xmr-lightning
Well your original comment was about BTC vs XMR and my comment focused on the fact that bitcoin centric people don't see an upside in monero as the issues with BTC L1 have already been solve through LN...
Look at cake wallet. They use breeze sdk for there lightning implementation. It's self custodial and works automatically in a few clicks. The only trade off is that you are locked in to a lsp for liqu...
I haven't really looked into it yet. Is it a privacy preserving solution?
It can get about as centralized as tor.
Very few use case for opening a direct channel to a merchant unless you are building a routing node. You can, but the fees are almost free. When I was playing...
I don't understand the tor reference?
As I see it the LN technology is interesting and can bring improvements especially for self hosted and special use cases but is more difficult to run.
Most LN users are and gonna be onboarded with a custodial setup through an intermediary layer, akin to traditional payment processors, which gives rise to a centralized vectors of regulatory attacks.
L1 p2p infrastructure is more resistant while staying easy to operate for users 👍

Imagine 8B people using monero. The dynamic block sizes would be huge. Wich would make a full node out of reach for plebs.
I didn't click your link sry. But to your argument:
I wouldn't expect it getting that big anytime soon or ever. I expect affordability of hardware outpacing moneros blockchains demands in the mid to long run, even with accelerating adoption. Also it's not necessary for everyone to run a node.
With BTCs block size limits you could soon run a node on every fridge out there but whats the point? I find miming decentralization more important and that I don't see improving with BTC...

It's not centralized. i can run my node. i can hold my keys. And I don't need to be on the phone for 4 hours to try to get my my node to block a merchant from making withdrawls. Only to find out that ...
I see. But when hosting your own node wouldn't you need to open channels and lock liquidity beforehand with each merchant you want to have instant payments? Routing through hubs would incur fees and actually form centralization no?
Again, we need to stay honest. Lightning solved instant payments pretty well. I'm picturing a line of people behind me at the cash register and I'm like: "hold on, We got to wait 2 minutes for this ne...
I agree instant payment is a great benefit. But the trade off is centralization. At that point one can also just use a crypto backed credit card.
I use crypto in the first place because it's p2p.
