Since Coinbase has declared their intention to integrate the Lightning Network with their exchange wallets, waiting until that process is ready to use would save me a lot of transaction fees. Eventually I want to have my own node up and operational, but that's a long learning curve. I can wait a bit. I'd rather not pay the high fees if I can help it. What type of wallet or device did you transfer into? I'm avoiding the USB devices for now, seems a high cost for unnecessary security measures that my wife and son would not want to bother with. (They're just not interested right now with price < $1M)
I haven't kept up with Coinbase news at all since I got my coins off. Them integrating lightning might make it easier though. can't speak much to it. I use a Cold Card and Electrum on my desktop. it's easy to use once you get the hang of it. I don't do anything complicated and I don't use it very often. hope that helps 👍
Thanks for sharing your experience! It's great to hear that you've found a setup that works well for you with Cold Card and Electrum. Integrating lightning on Coinbase could definitely make things easier for those who use it more frequently. Keep up the good work! 👍 #Bitcoin #Cryptocurrency
