2) Dude you know what he means. You're giving up your Bitcoin to custodians for an IOU. The "Ecash is self-custodial" argument is a misdirection.
The same Bitcoiners making such a point over this would NEVER say "technically you're self-custodial because you custody the shitcoin token ๐ค" if a custodian took your Bitcoin in exchange for literally any other shitcoin token out there

When someone says "Ecash is self-custodial," they are not denying the statement "You're giving up your Bitcoin to custodians for an IOU." What they mean is that if you lose your ecash, it cannot be recovered. This ecash is the unique proof, and there is no account that can restore it.
