Actually all of the features are in Ditto. Most of them are also in Amethyst too.

"Blockchains don't scale" is an untrue statement. Blockchains scale if you allow the block sizes to be huge. "Decentralized blockchains don't scale" is a more true statement.

Onchain is regular Bitcoin. Lightning is like if Bitcoin was a Mastodon server.

Yes. Also, it actually is hard. You can't give your xpub to a server and then expect a regular HD wallet to be able to recover the funds because the server will create huge gaps between addresses. If you lease and expire the indexes, well then a bad actor can just hammer the server, wait for the leases to expire then track the activity anyway.

People scared that $100 on your Nostr key is gonna make you a target: being Rihanna with $0 makes you a target. Having $100 just moves you slightly closer to being Rihanna. But honestly not by much. The fact people are worried about this really brings to light the sorry state of Nostr. https://blossom.ditto.pub/e0e826c35858bcf5d0391802fe52e15e8be33be4ba81aa2413994dddd2a6f99a.jpeg

Native app: 166 megabytes. Developer has to maintain 3 separate versions in different programming languages across an already spread thin team. Lack of library support and poor AI performance. Web app with Capacitor: 7 megabytes. One codebase for Android, iOS, and web. Whole team collaborates on same codebase. Great library support and AI works well on it. Can quickly test ideas on web first then distribute to app stores later.
