n2n is right.
All spending within SN is tied to an account so that we can weight voting appropriately.
Using your account balance like it's wallet of satoshi is not really what's intended.
SN is still a custodian of sats with a concentration of operational burden.
While SN doesn't really need the privacy of eCash (you can do accounts in a Fedimint too, btw), the distributed keys of a Fedimint might be more advantageous than current setup (of which I am completely ignorant). You distribute load between the guardian servers and distribute risk by having keys disagregated. This could also allow for stackers to run LN gateways for SN, reducing operational requirements and creating redundancy.
Privacy is cool, but reliability, redundancy, and security improvements are also very cool. Would be happy to shill... errr... chat more about Fedimint any time.
Yeah, agree it is more relevant for an exchange. Or Wallet of Satoshi.
Stacker news is not a fucking wallet. Its just shitpost sats. Its meant to be thought much more as an internal balance like you would have with twitch bits or any other place where you can deposit money and use it internally as opposed to a payment app.
ecash does not make sense for SN
