the majority of cryptocurrency users DO NOT KNOW ABOUT LIGHTNING

really, they don't get it, some pretend they know but have never used it

and the moneros don't seem to understand that none of the hops in a payment route are blinded from the rest, it's at least as private as both parties in a bitcoin transaction using tor on both ends, the sending and the receiving 

 I know they don't know. I hear them on podcasts complaining on and on about how Bitcoin is useless as a currency.
