you have up to 27% lower onchain transaction fees when opening the channel
This is due to Taproot and the 27% reduction is for transactions containing 3 inputs and could be more based on the number of inputs.

Their use of miniscript descriptors and script-path spending demonstrates how Taproot can be used to improve privacy instead of spamming.

the new 2.2.0 version brings better privacy because there are no more static receiving addresses and by merging the signatures through musig2, you have up to 27% lower onchain transaction fees when opening the channel

so them new design for Swaproot privacy is to use is Taproot to hide pay-to-script transactions and miniscript for recovery swap-in.



I liked the idea, especially since there is no longer a static address so everyone can know that you are using Phoenix.
