I created my original self-custody wallet back in 2017. I have my words, and I've been using it to store some of what I have. I've been trusting Coinbase with the bulk of it, because it's easy. Getting everything into self-custody is a goal, but even given the news of this past week I still don't think it's an emergency. I might be wrong, and I'll take the losses if I am wrong. I don't want to fight with anyone, I want to learn.

Is there a wallet out there where I can enter these words, get access to the wallet, and send/receive via lightning without any additional steps or stress? And I mean 'plug in words'+'send' with almost nothing in between. If it gets into multiple apps, steps, equipment I have to buy, or whatever, then it's not worth the fight and I'll just wait longer. Because that combination is what I want.

Anything fit the bill?

Starting this off witb As Far As I Know-

Really good wallet to put your 12 word into is Sparrow Desktop (only desktop, any wallet called sparrow in an appstore is a scam).

Direct lightning to onchain isn't usually a thing. You'd need to do a submarine swap with something like https://boltz.exchange/ which is pretty simple. gives you an address to send sats to via lighting, ask for an address for your onchain wallet.

I would keep an eye on memepool.space to do it while fees are low. They've been a bit crazy lately.
