That's why it worked well, because the receiver is "new to crypto". That's because, to receive SP, receivers need to scan every block and every transaction so that they can perform a computation to determine if a certain address belongs to them.
That means that the longer you go between scans, the more blocks you need to download and process.
With BIP47, as a receiver, you just need to look for notification trabsactions, it's orders of magnitude faster.
> The longer you go between scans, the more blocks you need to download and process
It's important to note that because of cutthrough (utxos that are already spent can be skipped), this statement isn't entirely true. If you wait long enough between scans, the data you need to process will approach a constant.
Yeah all I can say is try it really. It’s stupid simple. For some reason, I never was able to even test BIP-47. Not sure why SP got more traction than that
