tl;dr L1 allows me to be effectively self-sovereign for free

One of the biggest value propositions for me has always been that I can put 1 of my bitcoin addresses out in public & not need any technology or a third-party provider (nightmare nightmare nightmare!) for fund management between the time it's generated & the time it's spent from. So, I use L1 exclusively.

P.S. I feel like I'm probably doing more than my part for society already & any recyclables I cash in don't really even the karmic balance. In addition to my litter collection I described above, I'm also hunting/killing cockroaches in the street around midnight (first spotted this month), reporting vandalism, bulky illegal dumping, discharge of pollutants into storm water drains, stolen shopping carts, dead animals that may need testing for zoonoses, trespassers encamping on private property, moving reusable illegally-dumped items to better locations & putting them on Craigslist free... overwhelming trying to remember everything from on patrol.

My city has a public reports website where everyone can see things everyone else reported (except 911 calls & some other exceptions), and it's rare that I see anyone else had reported something in my immediate neighborhood. I also have email alerts set on Craigslist & I almost never see neighbors posting their stuff as curb alerts, they just curb it & skip the alert.
