It is for their savings account. Periodically I sweep it to their on chain wallets.
Let’s be real, not a lot of people transact with lightning in real life.

I haven't done it yet. Up until now I've been using Phoenix, and then I was using Mutiny with a fedimint.
But I'm tired of getting rug-pulled by LSPs and I want to self-host. Looking for ideas.

Nice, I didn’t know that. Sounds like that might drain the battery though.

Focus on bitcoin, leave the “crypto” for the chumps.

Same, I was in the process of moving to Mutiny when the fedimint lost control of one of their dns records. It was worrisome for a few days but I was able to recover the funds. Didn’t inspire a sense of confidence.

I do use sparrow but I need something off chain for paying my kids micropayments.

Does it use Tor? I didn’t know that. There’s no mention of that on their website.

That is true, but for my purposes I only keep a small amount there for paying my kids. I do wonder if there’s any risk of the LSP going away or blocking US users by IP.

I was able to withdraw funds from my kids’ wallets (<30k Sats) but not my own wallet (~100k Sats)
I’ve been using Mutiny to pay my kids for doing chores.
After Phoenix bit the dust I moved to Mutiny.
Was hoping to rely on fedimints to avoid high channel fees when paying my kids a few Sats here and there.
Now on to Zeus? But we’re back to managing channels and paying channel management fees.
