Definitely not. Ethereum is on top of the DeFi world, for sure. But DeFi is not CeFi. As an analogy: DeFi is to smart contracts as CeFi is to “dumb” contracts. The legal entity behind Stellar has significantly more of the latter than the entity behind Ethereum--which has none, to my knowledge. ... Plus, gas fees. It's currently cheaper to wire money than to send some ETH.

You could use a [WIM image][1]. They can be mounted rw or ro and have file-level deduplication. Microsoft's official tooling is necessary to mount them on Windows as [the only open source implementation I am aware of][2] uses FUSE for mounting.

Unfortunately, I think this move would receive quite a lot of flack due to it being systemd. I totally agree though.

Bitwarden is end-to-end encrypted. So, password "resets" aren't really a thing without also resetting the vault as a whole.
