Coindesk is pretty shitcoiny and lame, but i do think that’s a logical discussion to be had. Using third parties, centralized services, LSPs(?), custodians, etc could be seen as cheap “shortcuts” to adoption (not a real shortcut if it’s not real adoption)
There seems to be a bit of a trade off between accessibility and sovereignty, so far at least
But it’s also worth noting that, even though Bitcoin on the base protocol and Lightning may not be equipped for full scale adoption, it’s got to be safe to assume that would bring more innovation for better sovereign scaling solutions
Also worth noting that i don’t know shit about fuck
