also happens to be a tool upon which we could build a direct funding alternative. just need to integrate zapraising crowdfunding. should be simple
Discussion
I am currently thinking article with zap splits. right now I am compiling an opinionated list (and you have made it onto it)
zaps will be distributed soon as I do not currently have an NWC setup on my node and need to do it manually
cashu would be a great solution for this
it would not as I want to self custody my sats
The sats you are about to send to other people?
Where would the sats for the custodial Cashu wallet come from? Oh wait…
Why should I not use my existing node directly instead of adding an untrusted custodian and one more step that makes it harder to use my sats?

Using your existing node is great but you explicitly stated that it isn’t set up to do that. I’m just pointing out that using cashu to make the transaction doesn’t have to have anything to do with your funds that you aren’t already planning on sending to people you don’t know.
The risk profile of using cashu to make this particular transaction is low since you wouldn’t be holding the funds there.
Not wanting to involve a third party in the transaction is a separate reason and totally valid
I am too lazy to invent my own NWC plugin and accounting system but I also trust absolutely no one else’s after I got burned too many times by software like LNbits
