Oddbean new post about login | logout I suppose this is a great thing for small amounts. However if you are relying on strike to hold 'your bitcoin' , you might as well just keep your money at a normal bank and use a debit card. An advantage could be I suppose if you keep all of your bitcoin in a self hosted wallet, then transfer amounts to strike as needed, spend on the debit card, then send back out any leftover or not?
The problem with that approach is the scarcity. I wrote an entire article on this, basically there are two options with Bitcoin. 1) SOV - self hosted wallet/Cold Storage/Bitcoin is Money 2) Strike - other - Bitcoin is currency You won't be able to interact cheaply with the Base Layer, think Digital Property with a fee of $1000 in the future. You may never interact with Base Layer so use L2 and if you get too much currency convert to SOV on Base Layer. https://bitcoinapolis.blogspot.com/2023/09/bitcoin-like-time-scarcity-in-base.html and https://bitcoinapolis.blogspot.com/2024/01/bitcoin-bitcoin-scaling-biggest.html
It's not ideal, hence why I don't recommend it. But certainly you could use lightning, as strike is fantastic with LN. I have a few nodes, and one main node with plenty of bitcoin in channels. Plenty enough value in usd to live off of. Not sure on strikes LN limits however.
