If you're not using a middleman, then I think it would be wise to use a private-by-default currency so that others cannot see your financials.

I see. A double spend isn't possible. However, is the attack outlined here: https://github.com/amiuhle/kasisto/issues/31#issue-290243115 feasible? If so, is it easy to do?

Well done, never mind that guy, he clearly has an axe to grind and doesn't seem to grasp very much other than his out of touch talking points: did you look into using BTCPAY [0] server?

Game changer for us is BTCPay Server since a big point of crypto is removing banks/middlemen. Rock solid and bitcoin goes directly to our wallet that we control the private keys for. No Coinbase. No Bitpay. Just actual bitcoin. Highly recommended
Doubts regarding Lightning API by Jock Dorsey through Nodeless
2 projects | /r/Bitcoin | 25 Jun 2023

Since the transaction which would be running are not going to be that large of a quantities where each and every % matters, I think it would be safer to go with something like nodeless as referred. For some larger operations https://btcpayserver.org/ would be somewhat better. Thank you for the help!
