Good point. Zapnode.io isn’t meant to replace people running their own basement nodes. It’s a tool to supplement node runners by letting them spin up extra Knots nodes in the cloud. By design it can’t be purely cypherpunk. Using Zaprite today reduces the operational load of Lightning and also supports Zaprite and Strike, which we see as part of the same ecosystem. It’s not for profit at this stage, just a weapon to strengthen node runners. In the future we’ll add the ability to zap private nodes directly, and at that point running our own Lightning node will make sense.
