So you are onboarding people to your Alby Hub using the friends & family app? Since Alby Go currently is limited to NWC connections and has no connection to your Alby Account I am still wondering what configuration options you are missing in Alby Go?

We're following the developments with e-cash and other L2s very closely. However, we still need to figure out how these pieces all fit together into a solid UX that doesn't make it more complicated for users than absolutely needed.

I completely understand the need to limit complexity. I’m just looking at it from the perspective of a new user. If I tell them to download Alby Go, the app itself doesn’t give them any instructions on what a NWC connection is or where to get one.

For family and close friends, it’s not as much of an issue because I will do exactly what you said, but I won’t be responsible to manage wallets for people I don’t know. Most won’t set up their own Alby Hub instance unless they are already well versed with bitcoin, so I have to recommend different wallets like Aqua or Strike (if available) to them because they are best suited for an all-in-one package.
