WoS will rug, don’t worry
Discussion
I use WOS, why do you say it will rug?
The fact that it’s even possible for them to rug you should give you concern.
Why even risk it?
Oh ok. Why is it possible for them to rug? And which other wallet do you recommend I use?
It’s a custodial wallet. They own the private keys to the wallets you are using. Meaning they have the ability to spend those funds.
You would need to use a non-custodial wallet that keeps your private keys on device. There are several good ones, but none of them support Lightning addresses for receiving “zaps”. I recommend Phoenix wallet to those unfamiliar with non-custodial Lightning wallets.
If you want to receive zaps non-custodially, you’ll need to run your own LN node and setup LNURL (not very straightforward at the moment, but I did write up a guide for how to set this up on a Raspiblitz if you already have an LND node running on it):
👍🏻
Any custodial wallet can go offline anytime and you will have no recourse. Always keep a minimal balance on them and withdraw to your own on-chain wallet or Lightning node.
