that’s why the design doesn’t ask anyone to trust us.

The design does ask people to FUND you, with a pretty penny.

Why not just a node operator? A node reports what Zebra/zcashd compute — those balances are computed once, by the same code that reports them. The point is a second, independently written accounting that checks that.

Accounting that can be written in less than 30 minutes using modern AI using crates already established. Wow. What a contribution. I’d pay $50k for that, definitely.

Plus, its idiotic to spin up a node for a single task.
