I did. The technology is cool. Don't get me wrong. Not knocking the project at all. I am very neutral in this situation, because I am not well versed in the underlying technologies of cashu, lightning, or even bitcoin. I am just an advanced user trying to share wisdom and make memes while trying to earn an honest living on Nostr while I am unemployed.

I am just not the type of person who likes custodial anything. Even if in your eyes that makes me an inept dumbass who just doesn't get it. I've been stabbed in the back more times than I can count. Rug pulled by multiple crypto exchanges.

At this point you can only get beat the fuck up with custodial options before you say hey, maybe I should just take this bitcoin, magically turn it into off-lightning network bitcoin, shove it in a trusted non-custodial wallet, put it in a hard drive, and have a well documented boating accident to lose it like the good lord intended us to.
