I believe sometimes Bitcoin folks can develop a rigid way of thinking that results in the preemptive rejection of good technology like Cashu’s protocol and its relationship and custodian operation.

Taking custody over money still has an enormous role in financial technology even with new interactions like zaps, e.g. it is likely that an education services or schools that creates scholarships or funds with education technology would likely take a responsible role in custody of funds for children or parents. It’s the nature of existing in a service economy. This alone could potentially manage billions of interactions.

It goes without saying that there is a first principle in the Bitcoiner mind centered around sovereignty or permissionless interactions, but it isn’t a law of the universe.

The rigidness could result in missing out on compelling technologies like the cashu environment, stablecoins and other smart contracts.
