lnproxy takes a bolt 11 invoice and generates a “wrapped” invoice that can be settled if and only if the original invoice is settled. The “wrapped” invoice has the same payment hash, expiry, and description, as the invoice it wraps but adds a small routing fee to the amount. The “wrapped” invoice can be used anywhere the original invoice would be used to trustlessly hide the destination of a payment.
use the in your .bashrc (available in the Raspiblitz v1.9.0 and above with a CLI shortcut as well):
Code and how to run yourself:
Improved alias verifying the payment hash:
use parallel private channels to hide capacity and UTXOs
To hide public channel balances, a node may open unannounced channels in parallel to announced ones. Depending on the relation between the balances of announced and unannounced channels, the attacker may still be able to discover unannounced channel balances (e.g., if the balance of the unannounced channel exceeds the balances of announced channels). Even in that case, the standard probing technique needs to be modified
create channels from coinjoin outputs
private channels are not announced, use them especially if there is a public channel to the peer already
open one channel at a time
create no change
avoid round amounts
close cooperatively to an external address (eg a Joinmarket wallet running as a Maker))
syntax for LND with Balance of Satoshis:
LDK / Sensei based
a new node for every channel open
fund channels with an external wallet and no change
Payjoin to channels. The receiver of a paymant can open channels in a payjoin.
Tor support and private chain info
OBW - Tor + Electrum server support
optional custodial hosted channels support - payments are private from the provider
Breez - Tor and neutrino backend
Blixt - Neutrino block source
Traditional custodians provide no privacy from the maintainer.
