I agree that we shouldn't recommend custodial bitcoin wallets, however I do see the appeal for lightning addresses and social fund raising that requires an always on server.
There is a post about custodial on the fron page rn: #165856 😇
Yeah... for VERY small amounts, I agree there is no problem. For example, I get that the wallet here at SN is custodial, but as soon as it reaches X amount of sats, they should tell you "hey, it would be good if you take all this money to your custody".
Probably they won't tell you, because the business in all the people moving money from post to other post, but anyways...

Money is relative, right? Maybe you're thinking 1m sats. Maybe Idgaf about 0.1 BTC. There are people out there for who 10 BTC is pocket change
