It’s not self custody It’s for small amounts like spending money… You can get way better privacy using ecash vs something like cash app or strike where they kyc you. E cash is no kyc It’s sats You can do offline payments It’s really cool but yea not for large amounts because a mint could rug you. It’s not your funds until you sweep them to like a self custody lightning channel

I don't use cash app and strike. Offline payments can be used to scam merchants.
