How do you see the scaling of podcasting2.0 as it relates to keysend pubkeys? Will all podcasters need to run their own node / get their own pubkeys in order to join the network? Do you think that's scalable long term?
Do you think of any use case for Lightning Addresses or another abstraction layer that could be used in the protocol?

I think adding keysend support to the Lightning Address spec would be amazing - it would make adding people to your show / episode splits much easier than it currently is.
Right now on Fountain you can add people to splits either by their Fountain username or their pubkey - but it would be cool if you could use a Lightning Address from any platform.

I think the most important thing for podcasters is choice and there needs to be both custodial and non-custodial options. Right now in my view there isn't a non-custodial option for podcasters that is easy enough for a mainstream audience that don't care about Bitcoin - but I think in the future this may change.
Ideally in the future most podcasters will onboard to a custodial podcaster wallet but then have the choice to move to non-custodial if they want to.
