Hi Anon, check out our not-so-new Lightning implementation called "Fiat channels". This solution allows merchants to actually opt in and not need to constantly swap to fiat currencies.
It enables the creation of a stable value asset on Lightning, backed by Bitcoin. It is an option for merchants who are skeptical about Bitcoin's price volatility (almost all merchants, anyway), but still keep them accepting and transacting with Sats on the Lightning Network, and yes, completely anonymously!!
This solution has been integrated into Valet, a self-custodial, Bitcoin/Lightning wallet. Valet is a fork of the popular Simple Bitcoin Wallet (SBW)

Remove the crap fiat channels and bring back the hosted channels.
Only that will make Valet a real BTC wallet and will get more attention.

Thank you. We plan to bring hosted channels, yes.
