Yes, but anyone can run a Coinos instance - it's open source. It's basically a Docker container with LN node (CLN) Bitcoin core and Liquid elements packaged in it.

But yeah, it's not 100% what you were looking for, but came close conceptually - a three-way bridge where you can pay any of the three chains with funds from another.

It required a manual internal swap step in between, but I guess this could have been automated/abstracted away. I.e pay a LN invoice directly from your Liquid balance.

You'd likely have to rebalance the three stacks (BTC, LN, L-BTC) occasionally, but a skilled operatir should be able to do so cost effectively - given that you can swap BTT <-> L-BTC for a mere 0.1% on Side_Swap and L-BTC <-> LN for theoretically 0% via Peerswap, or Robosats

Well, if you run it yourself, you are becoming a bridge (if for you, not much useful, if for others, you are a custodian).

Yes, it would be something for custodial wallet providers. WoS, Zebedee, BBW etc.

Agreed, makes little sense for personal use

I thought that would be the natural audience for your proposal. As "managing a bridge" is something very few normal ppl will do - or are good at.

Custodial lightning wallet providers probably have enough liquidity already and can open huge channels where the fees don't matter.

My proposal is for those of us that don't like custodial, but also don't like high fees.
