Thank you for the feedback!

I considered this. It requires an additional roundtrip for the lightning invoice. I think that’s unnecessary. The biggest issue with exchanging credits for sats is the UX currently IMO. So I’m optimizing for that to get a market with some liquidity started. For now, if you don’t like the quote of the bot, don’t zap it.

The bot will publish the current exchange rate in its bio soon. This should help here.

It requires an additional roundtrip for the lightning invoice.

Just to make sure I got this right: right now, a transaction requires 1 comment from the CC seller and 2 from the bot. With my approach, it would be 2 from the bot and 2 from the seller. Is that right?

Yes. Roundtrips / Interactivity requirements are terrible for UX and DX.

(I should have said 0.5 roundtrips, because asking for a lightning invoice means there’s one message more, not two, like in a roundtrip.)

It’s a personal choice, but I’d rather not risk the CC seller not having enough CCs and having to generate another invoice and submit another order. Plus, I think it’s clearer for the CC seller, even if it means one extra comment.
