lightning is literally never custodial if you are running it, because there's you, and teh other side
ecash the locus of control and power is entirely on the side of the mint
it is literally just like a bank, it can say "you can't access your account because reasons" and gone
this can't happen with lightning, worst case is you are unable to access your coins until the other side wakes up, and usually the best option is to contact them, to prompt them to close it, or, if you use your channel keys to trigger closure from your side
again, repeat, again, this is not possible with ecash, ecash is 1983 technology and it never caught on for a reason, and calle is a shyster
