Thanks for the link, this was a big disappointment yesterday, my friend told me this whole thing feels like a "Freemium Trap" scam.
Where a company initially offers the service for free or with a "limited, exclusive" appeal to build a user base. Once users are invested and reliant on the service, they introduce substantial fees, trapping users.

No. Is not a scam. In fact they help you be sovereign and not using a custodial account.
When too many people are using a custodial solution it can generate a huge centralization of funds and shit could happen.
Bitcoin means be responsible for your own money.

thanks again, I told him to sign up for walletofsatoshi.com he is happy about the solution and I understand now the difference between a custodial wallet and the point of this transition made by Alby. All in all, it was a good experience.
