Oh fuck off, I don't need your permission to be here or to own bitcoin. You're as insufferable as a vegan. The fact that you think you can tell me and others what to do shows that you're an enemy of freedom.
Har har are you trolling or do you need some serious help learning how to self-custody right now?
reply
Phoenix and ZEUS (from 0.8.0 onwards) are incredibly easy to use self-custody wallets with Lightning functionality (the latter has built-in Lightning and on-chain balances if you use their embedded node).
This fucker is being a contrarian just to be, or is actually this fucking stupid. Point and laugh either way.
reply
Those are for spending money. I think the nature of the discussion was around secure savings vaults.
This is why I focus on things like Liana wallet rather than talking about lightning network wallets.
reply
Lol, you think bitcoin on an OS that you don't control and that can be exploited is more secure than an ETF? Maybe you should stick to an ETF.
Or are you trying to make that the average person should run the own lightning node and connect to it from a mobile wallet? Like I said, you IT nerds are clueless about the real world.
reply
An airgapped signing device is as simple as transferring files from a digital camera to a home computer.

This is a much better argument than simply insulting people who want to use ETFs, thanks.

I run CalyxOS, not stock.
I use ZEUS's recently introduced embedded Lightning node (which is why I mention 0.8.0, and not older versions which act as node controllers) for full self-custody both on-chain, and on Lightning.
And lastly, I only use an on-ramp (Spritz) for necessary bills I can't pay with native Bitcoin.
I never thought I'd say this two years, but have fun staying fucking poor. And learn to bait better.

Like I said, you IT nerds are clueless about the real world. "Install a custom OS on your phone - more secure than ETF". Hahahaha. Btw, bitcoin already made me rich, but thanks for playing.
