 I would be curious about the metadata of ln and ecash wallets 
 Corny Chat will have an AMA with Alby at 19:00 GMT today, the 23rd. You could ask there. I know running LNBits as a custodian for people on my node is very revealing. 
 Hmmm, that is an interesting experience. 

Have you learned something already worth summarizing in 3 points? 
 Not sure if this is what you mean, but:

I can give and take away sats at will.

I can see where and when sats move.

Sats in the user wallets are in one pool on my node and I can use or leverage them as I wish. 
 That is simply describing custodial wallets, or? Or you mean, that it is not taken as serious as it is? 
 I guess there's some realization of the depth of it when you run your own. Same goes for AI.  
 Hmmm, I think this is a really important lesson generally.

And this is why, we generally tend to learn from lessons we face ourselves, and not heard from others.

And also why privacy in general is a neglected thing.
