Oddbean new post about login | logout People in the comments saying I'm wrong aren't offering any solution. Give me an open source, custodial wallet that "just works" without requiring me to self-host something or pay for something.
Phoenix wallet get it from github
Minibits wallet for android
Ecash lightning wallet for ios
Come hang out with poor people and we will give you the scope
Custodial: Wallet of Satoshi Blink Idk if Blink restricts US users like WoS 🤷♂️

It’s the “custodial” requirement here that gets you no answer. Ignore that and there’s a few Breez SDK wallets, some LDK-node ones coming soon, plus Mutiny, Phoenix, etc. custodial wallets aren’t legal without KYC most places in the world…
KYC sucks and is harming Bitcoin. But it's a UX problem that can be solved for 99% of people. It is even possible for non-custodial Lightning to have a UX that's acceptable for mainstream users?
Phoenix, Breez, Aqua, and countless other self-custody solutions already present an excellent UX for mainstream users. But, you do lose a few things that always online custodial solutions offer like lightning addresses and zaps. Can be fixed/there are workarounds but we leave the "mainstream user" territory from there.
