Why? Because there will be a lot of scam mints vs few custodial wallets that’s been in this space for a while.
Sure, it’s better faster and more reliable but why not to focus on building something that can do the same but without having a trust model? Isn’t Satoshi created bitcoin to eliminate third parties ?!
Hold up, this isn't correct. A mint cannot rug you as easily as a custodial LN wallet. With custodial lightning, you're an entry in their DB. They can single you out, deplatform, and/or censor you. A mint cannot do this. A mint can't rug individuals, it's all or nothing. They rug everyone or no one. The reputational cost is vastly different.
