SilberWitch on Nostr: Running a server (that's a server, not an app, as it's constantly running a service) ...
Running a server (that's a server, not an app, as it's constantly running a service) is the thing we're trying to get around.
I think we can see, that Nostr has been steadily discouraging self-custody options and funneling everyone into "private" and "good UX" e-cash. I'm interested in some pushback. E-cash is probably less-secure than Monero or USDT, in practice, as the chances of getting rugged are quite high.
And what is the norm, depends upon the use case. We should maybe think harder about use cases, where people might want to move more than 1000 sats. Those use cases apparently exist and aren't rare, but people shouldn't be using ecash for them, out of desperation and exasperation.
