1-0 to Global South

i think the biggest headwind for bitcoin currently is the acute liveness requirement of the lightning network. it is only mildly annoying to have to retry a payment occasionally but not being able to receive without custodians is a major downer.

it's something for which i can see the logic of a client that merges chaumian ecash with LSP based self custody.
