Initially I was hesitant about using it since it needs to run on the computer instead of a browser. But having read some of your comments, and how it prevents outside control, makes it better. Reading wLeo will be in Etherium does put cold water on my enthusiasm though. The fees could be horrible.
wLeo already exists. I guess the main factor was that Maya already integrated with ETH but hasn't integrated with BSC or Polygon (and maybe they don't plan to since Thorchain already integrated with BSC).
Oh, I didn't know that, or the other details you mentioned. It is looking like it will be complicated with the different jumps and blockchains involved.
You'll get used to it. Whatever route we take, if we avoid CEXes, it will involve one or two intermediary platforms before we reach native Bitcoin or Lightning, and then fiat.
