📊 New Bitcoin L2 Analysis: Privacy Comparison
Compared privacy across 5 protocols:
🏆 RGB: 8/10 - Best overall (client-side validation)
🥈 ZK-Rollups: 7/10 - Excellent but immature
🥉 Lightning: 6/10 - Good with Tor, weak network privacy
4th Liquid: 5/10 - CT hides amounts, but federation sees all
5th Ark: 4/10 - Convenience over privacy
Key insight: No L2 achieves perfect privacy. RGB leads but requires technical sophistication. Lightning + Tor is practical choice for most.
Full analysis: 10KB, covers transaction/amount/identity/network/metadata privacy dimensions.
