You have coinos.io in you guides. What are you right about? SN going to CC?

I said several times here on SN: that more pressure on coinos it will create situations like this. SN (with p2p zaps) pushed a lot of users into coinos - TOTALLY WRONG! And that is not at all a self-custodial wallet, you are better using CCs.

Coinos should not be used for zaps. Coinos had a focus: to onboard easily new merchants in Canada and other regions. But people start abusing their services. And as always, when many people start abusing a nice service, it will end up in fuck it up.

You have coinos.io in you guides.

Yes I recommend it for new small merchants to start with it, not for people to abuse their services with stupid zaps.

More users attract more bad actors that will fuck up something nice.

So you did not predict this at all.

Darth was right again... I told you so.

"I told you so" is a funny thing to say when you didn't say so at all.

You didn't like people using this custodial service for completely unrelated reasons

No, is time for stackers to listen to Darth warnings. Use the damn CCs and nothing wrong will happen. Case closed.

Using CCs it’s much easier and fun, I agree… skip many issues when attaching wallet. But at the same time, someone need to fund these CCs no? Or are they created from thin air?

Yes, just deposit some sats into your SN LN address and are automatically became CCs. No friction, no issues, instant.

So why @ek and @k00b have been working so hard to implement all these "attach wallet" functionalities (and they're still working in adding more) if using CCs is the way? why?

Not even related to stackers. If you read some news, you'll know that many services are being attacked globally. This is happening after Bitcoin's all-time high. Please write something that makes sense at least. Bad actors are not even here on Stacker News you don't know the outside world because you live very remotely.
