And then the million USDT question: Is the digital gold hotel located at the digital Manhattan? If digital yes, there is no second best in the cyberspace.

Bitcoin is a digitally native monetary network that exists entirely within cyberspace, yet is grounded in the physical world through thermodynamic proof-of-work. It converts real-world energy into cryptographic security, creating a system where value is protected by the laws of physics rather than trust in institutions.

Genuinely curious. Why monero? I for maximum privacy and sovereignty I use on-chain, lightning, fediment and sometimes cashu. Can't you achieve all you want with btc?
GM! 🌅☕️🍳🥓In my 30 years of finance experience, one hard lesson i have learned is do not put all the eggs in only one basket. Yes, i prefer btc, i believe its a amazing asset, i work to spread its concept, but at this time, in the world i live, its not enough for me. In the last months, the price oscilation of Monero, give me an extra few hundred thousand satoshis. And in terms of privacy, Monero is a good option to me.
It's really hard to achieve that on Bitcoin and keep 1st principles. by which I mean, fedimint and cashu are shitcoin and like 90% on LN usage is custodial.

I would say using cashu or especially fediment on its own moves away from bitcoin philosophy, but used along non custodial lightning and col wallets make a great stack?
GM! 🌅☕️🍳🥓 almost all my satoshis are off-line... i using #LightningNetwork to combine the satoshis earned in small trades (less than 5% of total), and when the lots become good, I make a swap to the main network. Gradually, the package starts to look good.
maybe you should be. but I suppose there's a lot more popularity ($$$) in talking about convenient, custodial 2nd layer "solutions" for main chain problems. and somehow pretending by using 3rd parties #bitcoin is going to end up being "freedom money" personally, I'll stick with 1st principles and make my living another way.
