 No. I'm waiting for Cake to add lightning.  
 But I thought you hate lightning? 
 I'm gonna give it a try to compare it with Litecoin. Atomic swaps with XMR will make a very cheap tumbler that people may use.  
 Annnnnd this is where I mute the thread. 
 If they integrate... Lightning.. It'll be like steroids. 
 Do you wanna tumble your lightning if you cash out? 
 Tumble? Sorry please explain this  
 Transfer to another lightning address that's not linked to your Nostr lightning for privacy.  
 Yes 
 So you'll need to learn how to swap for XMR, then back. As of now it's tricky.  
 Cake has xmr, why cannot it? 
 They are still working on it. Announcement for lightning support was a few weeks back.  
 If I send LN swap for xmr. The trail ends I thought 
 You need another step in between to transfer from the XMR address to a different XMR address, then swap that to lightning that's now unlinked to your Nostr account.  
 LN>XMR>XMR>¿¿¿ food 
 Yes. Quite a hassle just so your baker doesn't know who you are online.  
 So true 
 But XMR to XMR is stupid cheap so it doesn't matter 
 Yes. It's less than a cent. You can transfer multiple times if you're paranoid. It seems like most users here don't care to hide their transactions. But who wants the store owner to know their online persona? 
 Some do, some not. The majority trust their government. Let time reveal the truth.👻 meanwhile, I trust no one. 
 Not even Santa? 
 Lightning is like spending money, on chain is like saving 
 I asked what people spent their lightning on, and got no responses.  
 Bread, from outback..😣 they charge $2 a loaf here, and I have beg for butter often. 
 Your local bakery accepts lightning? That's cool 
 No outback steakhouse, like the restaurant. I need to eat too 
 Cake isn’t bitcoin-only so you will probably be waiting a long time. 
 They announced it already.  
 No they aren't,but they deserve a spot for integration several payment types for btc with silent payments
