Can Lightning + Nostr make P2P Bitcoin harder to regulate through a single company? Peach's announcement yesterday raises an interesting Lightning question. Peach is temporarily changing its escrow model while dealing with regulatory uncertainty. What I'm more interested in is the architecture. A P2P market can have buyers and sellers trading directly, but if one company still controls critical coordination or escrow infrastructure, that company remains a pressure point. Mostro takes a different approach: Nostr for coordination, Lightning for the Bitcoin side of trades, and independent coordinators running an open protocol. That doesn't magically remove trust or regulation. But it potentially makes the infrastructure replaceable rather than tying the whole market to one operator.
