Yes .. you are right .. currently #lightning isn't supported on #bitkey ..but their documents say they are working on it .. if they do it , I guess , they would also enable Square card readers to scan the bitkey directly .. that appears to be the main play here .. you would carry a bitkey in lieu of a fat leather wallet .. it would work globally ..even without cellular network or wifi .. Total financial freedom from cell phone ..
Interesting, yes all of this might work by staying within the cashapp/block company ecosystem.
Which I think is a legit usecase .. in a way #Block isnt competing with hard wallets designed purely from custody stand point .. neither are they competing with lightning wallets on phones or web ..
They are choosing a middle path (probably ) targeting their merchants on #Square and p2p fiat users on #cashapp .. through a beautiful stone leather wallet :-)
Would be crazy to see them integrate nostr.
