Great recommendations for a kid. You might as well burn the coins yourself. It's much more efficient and it achieves the same result!
102 sats \ 0 replies \ @ca 18 Oct \ parent \ on: Does Wallet of Satoshi make all users balances public via Spark? lightning
Lightning has massive onboarding barriers. Let's not kid ourselves.
60 sats \ 1 reply \ @ca 17 Oct \ on: The open-source BULL Wallet is finally available on iOS and Android worldwide. bitcoin
I've been waiting for a Bitcoin wallet for 10 years! Finally the very first one has came out!
42 sats \ 0 replies \ @ca 14 Oct \ parent \ on: DISCUSS: saying "hold your own keys" is similar to "run your own email server" bitcoin
I would argue it's more like running an email server.
No other password requires maintenance because he can be forgotten and reset.
Even running an email server is easier than self-custody. Because you can reboot it.

No. You don't need to preserve a password with the same level of thought.
You can:
  1. Lose it and still have access to the website
  2. Reset a regular password
  3. Lose an account that can be recreated with no loss
  4. Call customer support
  5. Only lose data, not money
Wildly different barriers to adoption.

Very different. There is zero downside in losing a password for other stuff. "Reset password".

It's just saying "making it even easier for developers". Generic.
Is the added benefit the fact that you provide bindings for all major languages?
Or does it go beyond that?
Can I already receive an API key and play with Breez+Spark today?

What are the main benefits of using Breez+Spark versus the Spark sdk?
0 sats \ 5 replies \ @ca 15 Sep \ parent \ on: Nodeless on Spark | Waitlist is now open ⚡️ bitcoin
Are there public docs for Breez Spark?

Some people's time is valuable. Why jump through hoops.
22 sats \ 0 replies \ @ca 19 Aug \ parent \ on: Locked 1 BTC until 2030 bitcoin
None of these things are as secure as self-custody.
Chances of getting the ₿1 stolen are actually deceptively high. Good luck OP.
It seems like you don't have an engineering background because you mention "security" feature that are actually not secure for storing something as vital as bitcoin, e.g. passkeys.
10 sats \ 0 replies \ @ca 18 May \ on: Bitcoin, sats, bits, numbers, and perceptions bitcoin
Our conversations in this thread are irrelevant.
We are as far as possible from the normies. We don't understand the mainstream brain.
0 sats \ 2 replies \ @ca 18 May \ parent \ on: Bitcoin, sats, bits, numbers, and perceptions bitcoin
Takes up an incredible amount of space. Imagine that in a table listing 20 transactions, on mobile.
110 sats \ 0 replies \ @ca 15 May \ parent \ on: Call for Bitcoin User Interviews bitcoin
Bitkey is the easiest for non Bitcoiners. Multi-sig, but great UX for non tech-savvy people. The only product I could recommend to the normies in my life and feel confident they wouldn't screw up.
It has Bitkey Inheritance built in.
10 sats \ 0 replies \ @ca 15 May \ parent \ on: Frostsnap is available for preorder bitcoin
You lost me at the first point: best multisig UX. Hands down Bitkey currently.
I could recommend it to my mum and she didn't need my help for set up! Impressive feat.

Why is it in any way better than the best alternatives?
