Blind paths revisited



Summary:

ZmnSCPxj suggests that the payment secret may not be necessary if `blinding` is used instead. However, ZmnSCPxj also notes that establishing a secret with each hop is necessary due to payment point + scalar and path decorrelation. Thus, reusing the secret for each hop may be possible. Rusty agrees that this could be done and suggests placing it inside the onion rather than passing it alongside.
