Any P2P network with on-chain payments faces the same tradeoff: either run a hot wallet with real funds so your node can transact autonomously, or introduce custodial key management and hope the operator doesn't disappear. Both options have well-understood failure modes. Hot wallets get drained. Custodians get hacked, or worse, rug.

AntSeed sidesteps this entirely. The key that runs on your node never touches real funds. The wallet that holds your money never touches the node. They are cryptographically unrelated. Compromising one does not compromise the other.
