*I'll do demo at some point*

Create a NIP-5

example

- pleb@nostr.fun

Create a ⚡address from #cashu wallet

(only ones I know of so far below)

- pleb@minibits.cash

- pleb@npub.cash

Done

Now new pleb is socially free on web and has ⚡fast #Bitcoin but more private and better UI/UX

Would the owner of a NIP-05 be able to anything malicious?

Technically yes since NIP-5 &⚡addresses are just a redirect for someones npub & ⚡wallet (domain owner owns any "user @webapp .com"

But probability is so so low its a non-issue for me, getting someone started

True. I just worry while it may be more private than Lightning, its not more private overall. Im not sure exactly what is a better tradeoff. I suppose if you have you own NIP-05, that would make it safest.

Most ppl don't self host their own ⚡ wallets anyway, let alone actually use those funds.

So the tradeoff is using custodial LN wallet, exchange etc., v. using someone's mint

At least the mint operator can't see your transactions per user account; custodial LN can

Thats a great point! I will have to play around with all of these options. So much exciting new development on Nostr!
