Honestly, I'm kinda blown away by how usable Lightning is these days.

Phoenix is probably "safer" with full self-custody, but Wallet of Satoshi is just ridiculously frictionless.

I get it—"not your keys, not your coins"—but I'm not stashing my life savings there anyway. That's what cold storage is for. For everyday pocket change? Totally fine with the trade-off.

Living in a place where fiat-based QR payments are literally everywhere (and the whole narrative is tightly controlled), I honestly had no idea BTC payments had caught up this much.

I can't even imagine how seamless Strike or Cash App must feel. This is legit innovation.

One question though:

Since BTC is clearly the harder money, why would I ever want to spend it? Shouldn't I be dumping my melting fiat first?
