Oddbean new post about | logout
 Not even asking for a noncustodial wallet, i don’t know of any custodial nwc lightning wallets that I feel comfortable showcasing as a default. Whenever I do they end up closing signups. 
 I'm not saying custodial is bad here, more just highlighting that there is a 0-100k sat issue that  new users face before they can become self custodial to mitigate the potential rug from a mint. Also that there are other wallets/solutions that allow new users to immediately receive and send with not much more than an nsec and pasting in an lnaddress.  
 The Samourai arrests have had a massive chilling effect.  
 Yep 👍
