So, I wanted to transact with lightning, and chose the Blockstream Green Android wallet. This was before I knew about CoinOS.

Kinda annoyed with Blockstream. I have some on-chain balance in the wallet and some lightning balance for spending (same wallet). When I open and log-in to the app, the on-chain balance usually shows right off the bat, and I can send/receive, but loading the lightning balance, for some reason, requires multiple retry (as I keep pulling down the screen to refresh), sometimes the order of a few minutes. When I am standing in a queue to settle the bill, this is not really acceptable.

In contrast, opening the coinos website and hitting send (then scanning the QR) seems way faster and user friendly. (Would be curious to know if they have an app too.)

So, is there any trade-off? I understand I am trusting coinos with my sats here, and they can rug-pull me, but if it is a small weekly spending amount, is not that more acceptable than Blockstream?

Further, can we even call the lightning sats on Blockstream as self-custodial? Can they rug-pull me too?
