Replying to nobody

Woah. This is my point. LN is too complex on the front end to be useful AND adhere to the core principles of cypherpunk cryptography.

We give up custody for ease of use and HOPE and TRUST the sats don't get rugged.

Ugh.

I do believe with breez and phoenix we’re on the right track though. It’s just great to see how much is still being developed. With broad bolt 12 implementation a lot might change toward proper self custody solutions. And looking forward to a swift tor in the future. This would take most of the issues away.

I think the Breez SDK will bring with it a big swing towards non-custodial. It’s really simple to integrate it as a developer. Gives the user a non-custodial virtual node on Greenlight, Inbound liquidity with LSP services and ability to share node access to multiple apps on the same device.

…and you will get bolt12 too as Blockstream Greenlight runs on CLN.

Is it already part of the SDK?!

Ah no, it’s still on the roadmap

So, wallets that will be backed by the Breez SDK (such as Breez itself, i would guess) would offer all its users a native reusable LN payment code (=bolt12 offer), right?

And Zaps could go to Offers, instead of/in addition to LN addresses. Huge
