cool idea! what happens after 60 days?
Negative interest charged daily. Free for 99% of users, and the 1% that leave their sats, ignore reminder emails, are paying to keep the lights on.

You could optionally ask for "return lightning address".
Like when I send someone sats over email using this service and they don't pick it up in 60 days, then it would return back to me to nout@stacker.news (and you can take some fee from that... 21% sounds like a reasonable fee)

Thank you! Great idea. Would encourage more sat spreading, knowing that you could get most back.

This is the way. Return after 60 days and you take your share. I'd be totally fine with it.
btw, service works fine. Just like others said, add the QR code instead of copy&paste lightning invoice.

unless you leave your sats with us past 60 days, we are not your bank.

In other words, after 60 days "we are your European Central Bank" :)

But is not forcing you to use it, like ECB... is optional. Is a big difference.

it kinda sounds like you're banking on that loss.. its underhand and it unnecessary
just charge the fee, and charge for return-mail transparently

We’re banking on Bitcoin adoption. The service barely needs to generate any revenue to pay for itself. The point of the 60 day limit is to stop people from leaving funds on our service. I appreciate your viewpoint though, if there’s another way to encourage that we will adopt it.

For example, Machankura returns the sats to the sender, if unclaimed for 7 days. It would be great.
