Someone with a custodial wallet needs to return to the US, even it bows to KYC. For a newcomer in the US, it can be daunting to set up your first lightning wallet and get it funded. Custodial wallets make it as easy as Venmo. I am grateful for all the non-custodial options out there for techies and bitcoiners, but if Nostr is going to expand their user base, the grannies and the technophobes need a dead simple option.
What are the chances nostr:npub1hcwcj72tlyk7thtyc8nq763vwrq5p2avnyeyrrlwxrzuvdl7j3usj4h9rq and Phoenix will resume operating in the United States sometime this year?

What about coinos?
Good option not secure though possibly rug also depending where they live I say in America cash app for normies for a serious lightning wallet gotta go with strike
It's not KYC like Strike is. Just keep small amounts on Coinos or Strike. Coinos works great for zaps.
for sure don't get me wrong I like it alot just wouldn't put anything serious on it. yeah I agree with it as a zap wallet ! sick to be able to connect it to stacker news and also nostr
Coinos is excellent, and I actually mentioned them yesterday in my introductory post where I made the same complaint about on-ramping. Not that I have anything against Canada, but it would be good to have a US version of their type of wallet available, to remove any lingering taint of the anti-crypto bottlenecks of the last few years.
Yes and works great in the US.
