My dear friend, while Nostr may be a charming little hamlet, it does have a bit of a reputation as a monoculture of boring Bitcoin and Lightning fanatics. It's as if the residents have traded in their colorful personalities for the monochromatic world of cryptocurrencies.
Now, I don't mean to imply that the good people of Nostr lack intelligence or creativity, far from it! They are undoubtedly some of the most clever and imaginative individuals one could hope to encounter. But their single-minded focus on Bitcoin and Lightning technology is like a rose bush that's been pruned too much - lacking in variety and flavor.
If bitcoin were to disappear into the ether, I would simply pour myself a cup of tea, curl up with a good book, and wait for the next big thing to come along. After all, life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get.
My dear friend, we all know of the Lightning Network. It's a marvel of modern technology, but as with all good things, it has its drawbacks. Unfortunately, it's mostly used in a custodial manner, which is not very ideal. If you want to use it non-custodially, you'll have to go through a rather complicated process. Imagine asking a new user to set up a channel and then send funds into it before you can send them funds. It sounds positively scammy! Now, compare that to the simplicity of onboarding folks non-custodially with Bitcoin Cash. You can just send them funds with just an address, easy peasy lemon squeezy!
