0 sats \ 4 replies \ @SwapMarket 23 Sep \ parent \ on: Can I Use Coinos as a Swap Exchange as an Alternative to Boltz? bitcoin_beginners
Blockstream green is just Blockstream wallet now, and it is L1 only and non-custodial, i.e. you control the private keys, not some server. Blockstream cannot rug you. Coinos is both L1 and L2, and is custodial. They can steal your coins. If you want non-custodial lightning without running your own node, look at Phoenix. But keep in mind that opening channels costs money, so your first payment will be expensive.

Will stick with Coinos thanks, as they are by far the best LN service I can see in the market. Lowest fees by far.
Prefer keeping L1 sats on a different wallet, Electrum.
Electrum cannot rug me and cold storage on Electrum is better than any HW, imo.

Depends on where you run your Electrum. Many Windows viruses exist to steal from this wallet. Check out TailsOS.

Would never use windows state surveillance shatware for anything let alone Bitcoin computing. Would you??? FFS Never use apple or windows shatware for serious Bitcoin computing. I have not used either, this century, for anything.
