Different wallets offer different features. I use those wallets that give me the feutures I’m interested in at any given time. But I try to keep things simple.

True. I’m looking for simple as possible as well. I just want the best wallet to store some btc before hardware wallet arrives.

phoenix 💯

I want to switch. Did you find it complex to use Phoenix?

im gonna try it out today. been procrastinating 😂🤣

but it also has higher fees I've heard

plus you pay them 10k sats initially for their work of managing channels in the background and such

I have to pay them to use their wallet? Sorry this is all too complex for me at this stage. I’m jealous of all you able to understand all of this. Lol

yea maybe dont if your funds are already on muun you gonna have to pay double if switching to phoenix

Makes sense. I initially thought moving btc between wallets didn’t cost anything.

it's all trade-offs

ln.tips to WoS = basically free

with muun you get to easily swap onchain <-> ln

but pay higher fees

with phoenix you get to be self-custodial on phone

but pay initial fee for the service of not having to figure out to manage all the complex stuff

is this also bs? do let me know if so

This is the way.

And never forget, only what you are okay losing, on chain cold storage is still thr safest, play with lightning, get comfortable, keep stacking.

Use what suits you and try and keep an eye on these trade offs. You're doing nothing wrong using Muun.

I created a phoenix wallet. How do I pay this fee?

click on receive and it'll give you a message that the funds being transferred should be at least 10k sats

i think it'll deduct 3k sats from it for channel creation..

im about to do it now as well, but i have two questions first im about to post

And this only needs to be paid once? Let us know how your experience goes!

Youre not so much paying "them" to use the wallet, as the on chain fee to open a multisig channel to use sats on the lightning network.

And as far as I know a lot of these wallet solutions, unless you are directly running your own nodes, are never really fully non custodial.

Hit a wall, retreat and recollect. No shame in that. And I could be wrong. Think of all the progress we've all made from our first BTC transactions off an exchange.

Just spend some time studying them and seeing what features you would like to have in your arsenal.

Then you can decide what wallets you want to have and why.

Ya it’s been hard. Thought I did the right this using Muun because I heard it recommended here. Now I’m reading it will steal my funds and never to use Muun. Definitely discourage to safety stack.
