Yes! You can clearly see the path forward and implications for merchants and individuals who wish to be self-sovereign, but don't want the complexities of node management. I'm very excited where Alby is headed.
I just set up a new nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm Hub on nostr:npub1aghreq2dpz3h3799hrawev5gf5zc2kt4ch9ykhp9utt0jd3gdu2qtlmhct while I was on Nests and holy shit, it was ridiculously easy.
Love what this team is building! 🐝⚡️🔥

For existing noderunners, it adds a lot of functionality. For everyone else, you can run it for free on a standalone computer, or pay cheap a monthly subscription for a hosted node. There’s something in it for everyone.
