okay i see now. i can switch to zaplocker and then we move back to how things originally worked at launch, where i have to open zeus once a day or the hodl invoices expire and sats are returned to sender.
that's too complicated, so cashu works better in that regard, but it's another piece in the complexity puzzle.
if you go the cashu route, zeus is essentially acting as a layer to get you to dump the custodial sats into a LSP channel/node in the phone channel.
this is all fine and probably less complicated than the lightning node i've been running for 6 years, but is it normie ready, probably not. more time is needed to tinker and scenario play.
