Self-custody is the only way forward.

Without it, all of Bitcoin’s other properties are pointless.

Any thoughts on ECash?

It’s definitely not self custodial

many

ECash was before bitcoin, but bitcoin is the current winner. Saylor says “you don’t sell the winner to buy the loser.”

ECash needed internet native money to even be a viable idea (in my opinion)

yet there are idiots who still claim Lightning as custodial and or that what is being exchanged is not bitcoin but an IOU haha

All other forms of custody will fail, it will be the only one left standing.

On a long enough timeline every custodian becomes insolvent…

self hosted data too

And yet, people still neglect to do all their research to know how true this is.

We hold these truths to be self evident

what are your thoughts long term on LSP's?

And if it doesn't scale?

Has Zeus established ways of withstanding pressure and the legal battles that may lie ahead for self custodial wallets/devs/companies? Not asking you to spill all your secrets, just cruious if you have established resilience and how you see other self custodial wallets being able to withstand this next phase of the fight.

Which soft forks do you support

CTV Tools, APO, LNHance

Based

TY

Hbu?

Ctv, apo, txhash, cat

Really just want some form of covenants, the more expressive the better

Cat feels like a can of worms but on the other hand Bcash has had it for years now.

Bitvm and ordinals are a can of worms, I think anything scary is already here

Samurai was self-custody. Disintermediation equally important.

I think we just have to totally reject the idea that we are "transmitting money" we're transmitting bits. Transferring information.

While i agree, i also think arguing with “them” about concepts and semantics will not bear fruit.

We need to continue to build and make privacy preserving systems so pervasive that their words laws and opinions are simply counter to reality.

Whenever we stray from the path of self custody, the government is there to correct our course.

Zeus is the best out der, long live Zeus!!!!!!!!

Any good guides on how to self custody lightning with Zeus?

We are the revolution

Bitcoins new CEO, Michael Saylor says no. Eat it, Plebs!
