Super Testnet offered a challenge for things I never claimed about Lightning, nor denied about Monero.
Yes.
If you want to get a bit more detailed...
From the perspective of a third party observing the blockchain:
-Amounts are perfectly hidden (zero knowledge), but mining fees are not
-Address/receiver could be any Monero user in existence (since it is a unique one-time address that is seen once and then never again - effectively zero knowledge)
-Spenders use ring signatures to automatically "mix" your transaction with 15 decoys (but they're real transactions that happened on chain). Compared to the previous two it's the "weakest" part of Moneros privacy currently.
