The best part about Nostr x WoS is that it works.
The problem is, without the ability to control your keys, it's essentially a growing honey pot.
Should we care? Maybe not due to the ease of which one can withdraw funds on-chain or LN.
Or the fact that having multiple players support the ecosystem creates some sort of decentralized honey pot.
Either way, I don't think it's an existential risk to what we're doing here - if everyone loses a couple bucks it's not imperative to Nostr...
BUT, I read that WoS is being used in Africa & South America - these people can't afford to lose their Bitcoin, no matter how small the bags are.
I think that's reason enough we need to build better tools, & I believe that's happening as we speak already 🤝.
If you think a worthwhile project is going under-funded let me know 🤙.
