Self-custodial Blitz Wallet worth playing around for newbies.
It uses e-cash and Liquid for small amounts, but once you exceed your specified amount, it automatically opens a hosted Lightning channel for you using Breez SDK and Blockstream Greenlight.
No need for that ”ok, once you get enough balance, move from Blink to Aqua and then from Aqua to Phoenix etc.”
depends on how much BTC you have. anyway, my advice is to used sparrow or electrum on personal PC or laptop. if you have a lot of BTC buy HW wallet, e.g. trezor 3 safe. On mobile you can use bluewallet in read-only mode, that way you can only receive btc when you buying at ATM or from VEXL. For sending and UTXO management use only PC.
If you want to pay for some day-to-day things then use LN, phoenix is good one.
that guide from @DarthCoin is very good, but if you have questions, just ask here
I wonder why did you say that! Also, I not only use Muun Wallet, but others like - Wallet of satoshi (for withdrawing small amount of Sats), Proton Wallet (Started using it recently as it is BTC only Wallet and meant to store your BTC for long term),and Binance Wallet(It's my main one).
I don't fucking care how you find it. truth must hurt.
Proton Wallet (Started using it recently as it is Swiss-based BTC only
So if is a "swiss-based" what does it mean? That's just a stupid reason to choose a wallet based on its "location". Also linking your BTC keys with a public email address is just fucking stupid.
Bro, I'm not being rude here so please stop speaking shit to me!
I know what I'm doing and everything is going really awesome from the day I started investing! I choose Proton wallet because I pay for their email and VPN services (ever heard of ProtonMail? When I said it's a Swiss-based Wallet I clearly mean that not even a single info of your is needed to Receive/send BTC and very few Wallets like these are legal in my country)So, stfu and get yourself a life.
Yeah, I heard Muun isn't really a "lightning wallet" but don't understand the implications of that. You can still send someone a few sats and they can use it like a lightning wallet with the benefit of not having to fund liquidity, which creates a lower threshold for starting a wallet, like Breez
I think they subsidize and batch small payments, so the fees are manageable. Their approach has several benefits, but also a few problems. The most fundamental one would be that as fees increase, the wallet becomes less usable from an economic perspective. The constant swapping between layers just adds up. We saw that earlier this year when fees were super high during the ordinals nonsense. If you had your own lightning channels (with enough liquidity), it wouldn't have affected you at all. But Muun's system become problematic during that period. It's not clear to me whether they can simply tweak and optimize this system or need to fundamentally rethink it. There are some smart people working on it, I'm sure they have a few ideas.
