I think the biggest growth will be with semi-custodial solutions where the user doesn't need to run a full node themselves, but also don't give up control entirely. There are many companies building different setups (ex. Breeze wallet) and I think some of them will be breakout successes. But all this relies on plebs running routing nodes to keep the network strong and decentralised. I welcome the Krakens and. Bitfinexes but we should not rely on them entirely.
Thanks, this makes a lot of sense. Beyond all of your insight on @tomlaies question on hyperbitcoinization & ln - are there any additional tools, platforms, yield options - (anything really) - that you think would be helpful to drive continued and additional financial incentive for the pleb type routing operators?

I think we will have a significant new revenue stream from TARO. You will be able to exchange USD to SAT, and many other tokens, and node operators can facilitate these swaps for a fee.
Your avenue of thinking is very important. I will be giving it time... I have nothing more right now.
