onchain deposit address reuse #519

Currently phoenix reuses addresses for the onchain swap deposit address.

This means that outside observers (and especially senders) can see how frequently and what amount was received by a user in the past and future.

Privacy and security would be improved by creating a new address for each deposit.

This is something we're working on, but only makes sense when using taproot addresses, see #403 and #516

Sorry for the duplicate, apparently I didn't search the repo thoroughly enough...

Amazing that you're already tackling the issue, and with taproot there should be even further script privacy improvements, that's great, thank you! 🖤

With v2.2.0 released on iOS and Android, Phoenix now rotates the on-chain address (see https://acinq.co/blog/phoenix-swaproot for details and more).
