📝 Original message:
This line of thinking is technically informed. Lightning nodes will have to
be on 24/7 in order to be routed through, so it is probably better to
approach this the same way one would a server daemon: your favorite
back-end API stack (REST, JSON-RPC, whatever) with request authentication,
copious logs, and some sort of authenticated web interface to view pretty
graphs. A mobile command and control application would be gravy.

That said, there is probably room for a "lite mode" client which is an
endpoint -- it is not online 24/7 to be routed through, but can send or
receive payments when turned on. The correct approach here is to probably
integrate with existing wallets as another payment type.
