Welcome to the party! :D

Isn't it incredible? I was blown away too by the sudden possibilities, what new applications made, it feels like a gold rush that eclipses not only the bubble of web3, but even the gold rush of.. the real gold rush!

I'd warn about assuming lightning is private by design though. It's not that simple, yet. The great @TonyGiorgio (lightning developer) talked about it in an interview last year: https://bitcoinmagazine.com/technical/state-of-bitcoin-lightning-network-privacy

Or have things changed? I'm no expert!
