To be honest. I miss the necessary privacy to be BTC maxi. I love Bitcoin. But the deeper I fell into the rabbit hole, the more the question: Why is there so little focus on privacy when, according to Satoshi, it should be digital cash? To this day, the only way I can explain it is that it is being consciously directed by the CIA. It was not without reason that Satoshi disappeared shortly after the CIA became aware of Bitcoin. Think about it
This is also a central focus for us here at Indranet. I'm hoping that the system will enable me to fall back into the woodwork once it's up and running.
Satoshi rightly made the network fully transparent, giving us a fully auditable supply, but to fully qualify as cash there has to be strong anonymity. LN goes some way towards this, but I think that it is a clear case where there needs to be other types of Layer 2 systems running on top of Bitcoin specifically for this case. Liquid, RGB, Fedimint, Cashu, these are tippy toeing in the right direction but I'm still to see a L2 that obsoletes Monero. That will help a lot - and I do believe it will require a fully functioning, large scale anonymising p2p network layer first. Thus, Indranet!

I find it difficult to believe that this was the makings of a "person in their garage tinkering". It feels more like a thought out manhattan project type of invention to make sure that western hegemony stays ahead of the curve.
