Bitcoin maxi here. Want to learn more about this.
Lightning definitely provides more privacy than the base chain. But there aren’t enough sats for everyone to open a lightning channel. I think that most people will be using custodial options in the future. That’s my concern and I think that’s a valid one. If lightning offers good privacy, then would liquid be even better? Yes it’s custodial but the user base is small and the risk seems low given the federation model. Are solutions like these the ultimate future for p2p bitcoin?

Lightning over liquid is not such a bad idea because the layer where people transact is hidden anyway so even if the federation wanted to censor they couldn't.
Bro you gotta check out Phoenix and Zeus.
I use them regularly.
Literally any question at all, let me know. Self-custodial LN has come a long, long way. And there's indeed a long, long way to go. But I love the progress so far.
> there aren’t enough sats for everyone to open a lightning channel
how many sats are necessary?
