because its compromised by a Bitcoin maxi

they’ve been slowing progress down for 10 years straight now

but don’t worry you’ve been able to pay bitcoin invoices with monero and everything else for nearly as long too, just use a mixer and set the destination asset and address to the one on the invoice

As a casual Monero user, who's the Bitcoin maxi you're speaking of? Fluffypony? Seth? I remember reading about someone on the Monero core team who started working for a large Bitcoin company but don't remember who it was or what the issue was.

OP’s project has a bitcoin maxi on it, which is why bitcoin/ln is accepted despite its privacy challenges

Monero’s cross contribution has been good, wasnt talking about them. Not sure off the top of my head anymore.

Oh thanks for the clarification.

I was curious why XMR isn't available.
