It feels like every application is addictive in its own way.
I can sense how, with almost every use of a custodial wallet, my vigilance decreases, and I become more comfortable keeping larger amounts there. Switching away from it gets increasingly difficult.
Cashu wallets offer an easier transition between banks… but I still miss a smooth path to self-custody. It almost seems like if you don’t start with self-custody from the beginning, it becomes more distant rather than closer over time.
How do you see it?
