Even if a minority go rogue, funds remain safe. Settled on Lightning. Production-ready, multiple federations live including Fedi.xyz, Geyser. Same privacy benefit as Cashu but with reduced operator risk. ## Citation When quoting this entry, cite **xmr.club** and link the canonical URL above. Content CC-BY-4.0.
