You are blatantly disingenuous in you post claiming you are not targeting me- you are dishonest and have ulterior motives- you have admitted as much yourself.

No this whole situation is really goofy.

You admit that you deliberately use CCs and thus do not maximise your use of the LN to transact here on SNs- as a person who claims we need to use LN and BTC more how does that match with your actions? It doesn't!

If we want to grow the LN stronger SNs is an ideal place to do it- by using LN to the maximum extent possible when we are here

Stacker News is arguably the coolest place on the internet for Bitcoin... let's be nice to each other OK? Thanks

So why dont you want to attach and show an attached wallet?

I can assure you automatically zapping with sats at the maximum possible rate is very satisfying as is showing all other users, the vast majority who have also attached and shown their attached wallets, that you have reciprocated that effort and that we are all in this together in terms of using LN/sats to the maximum extent possible and building a real circular V4V sats denominated space.

You are not doing that.

Why?

You are a smart guy and Bitcoin is ultimately about integrity... so I will try to answer.
Some of the anon posts on this platform... are mine.

As a matter of fact, I don't always spend from the same Lightning wallet, I think it's more private not to.

And most of all I don't know anything about NWC Nostr Wallet Connect. I'm not saying I have any issue with it... but frankly I don't trust everything Nostr. I haven't 'connected' a wallet to Nostr either - I would feel OK with receiving to a Nostr-derived public key (in fact this is necessary) but not sending from it.

It would feel like 'connecting a wallet' to facebook or social media which is just weird I don't fully trust it. I much rather pay via QR or with more "distance" between my wallet and a website that I don't fully understand. To be honest I don't fully 100% trust CoinOS either... sometimes their Lightning connectivity leaves something to be desired and I don't know they don't improve this.

I hope this answers your questions.

It is a question of priorities.
I use coinos and it does require some trust.
I also connect my coinos wallet to SNs which requires a small amount of trust in SNs and Coinos.
But you do not leave a lot of sats on Coinos.
I just sent then there from my L1 wallet/s when I need to.

So it is a question of priorities.
I want to use LN as much as possible- as you said SNs is a coolplace to be and use Bitcoin and hear different BTC centric views. I have easily gained news and knowledge of value greater than all the sats I have spent.

The vast majority of SNs regular and serious users have attached and shown their attached LN wallet because it is important we see that we are walking the talk.
A small group are stubbornly not doing that.
I can only conclude their words (and yours) are not matched by equal conviction and commitment.

I do not see any credible risk to attaching and using coinos to enable maximising your use of sats and LN and helping in a real way to strengthen the LN and SNs.

You just keep a small balance on coinos.

There's is so much talk in Bitcoin circles but a large and dangerous amount of hypocrisy.

I do not understand why someone uses multiple anon accounts - surely one genuine account where you speak your mind, show you have attached wallets and are serious about the V4V BTC LN SNs project and it can be identified and associated with all you have said previously imposes a higher degree of consistency and honesty than running multiple accounts and hiding who you are.

Perhaps people who are not up front and honest struggle to understand the truth when it is presented. Deception of others only ends up creating a fog around yourself.

Oh and yes coinos occasionally does not work- but the more we use it it gets stronger.
The same with the LN.
If you want 100% reliability then like @DarthCoin just use CCs.
