 It's becoming ridiculous how many Bitcoin-related apps I have to install and deal with just to use #bitcoin.

- BlueWallet for Multisig
- GreenWallet for Liquid
- ZeusWallet for Lightning and on-chain Taproot
- Minibits for eCash
- Peach for P2P on-chain
- Robosats for P2P lightning
- BoltzExchange for swaps

These are just the basics, in my opinion.

Advanced users, also known as "paranoid crypto-anarchists", will also need to install:
- Bitcoin Core Node
- Electrum Server
- Mempool
- WasabiWallet for on-chain coinjoins
- Multiple custodial LN wallets for mixing

Even the shitcoiners who are into ordinals/inscriptions would also need a separate wallet app for that.

This growing list of apps makes it increasingly complex and time-consuming to manage. And don't get me started on #nostr...

Is an all-in-one bitcoin mega-app the solution? Thoughts?
