summary

Panel argues regulators are already shutting down coordinator-based privacy tools after the Samurai arrests and Wasabi coordinator shutdown, pushing a shift to decentralized, censorship-resistant tooling. Demonstrations discuss PayJoin as a payment-time privacy and scaling primitive, Wasabi’s incomplete implementation and coordinator risks, and Lightning’s strong sender but weak receiver privacy plus Bolt12, blinded routes and Alias SIDs as fixes. Ecash is debated as better custodian privacy, not self-custody.
