So, I first came upon the concept when I was installing Aqua wallet, but do not see it used much anywhere else. Even the handful of websites (Bitrefill, Travala) that acccept BTC as a mean of payment do not really mention L-BTC anywhere and it does not get any coverage.
Is the project more or less dead, and totally overshadowed by Lightning? In particular, I would be curious to know what are its relative merits/demerits against lightning, in terms of transaction convenience, fungibility of Sats, anonymity, privacy and trust model?
In case I am receiving payments from someone else, is there a point where I should choose Liquid BTC over Lightning?
