310 sats \ 2 replies \ @DarthCoin 24 May \ on: You have 30 seconds to onboard a user to BTC. Which wallet do you recommend? bitcoin
I will answer with another question:
With what amount of sats you will start onboarding? 10 sats? 1000 sats? 50k? 100k ? 1M sats ?
Because for each one there's a solution.
So your poll is not very specific.
Onboarding onchain or on LN depends on a lot of factors.
Even for LN depends a lot.
- opening channels
- onchain fees
- LN fees
- how liquidity works
- custodial / self-custodial
- keys / accounts security etc
A lot of things that you are skipping in 30 seconds. Is not that easy to onboard just for the sake of onboarding quick.
Between 1,000 - 50,000k Sats
I want to show them it can be easier than paypal, cashapp, etc...
I remember the BTC faucets back in the day how that got me off zero. I am hoping this can be a slightly different version for modern times.
I do understand I am skipping a lot of important education topics in this approach but these people only care about what is easiest. (I can sense the Joker Meme coming from you already)

50k sats is a lot of money. I would not play around with total noobs with that amount.
Later you will always regret it because you gift them 50k sats (or worse if they bought them from you) and after a while they just forgot / lost the access or they don't even remember.
I will always say: be careful who you will onboard.
BITCOIN IS NOT FOR EVERYBODY!
Bitcoin is not for the weak, only for brave.
Fuck the idiots, shitcoiners, fiat maxis etc.
Onboard only selective people.
With small amounts, just to play around, any custodial can do it perfectly fine. If they lose it, no big deal.
KEEP IT SIMPLE and let them come back later to you asking more questions.
