Aqua from nostr:npub1jan3xfrvxmd35smylytmnp3ne0sgqh2x47yq766s55zaf6eja4rselx52y is now available. It's a custodial Bitcoin, Lightning, and Liquid wallet. Hey nostr:npub1excellx58e497gan6fcsdnseujkjm7ym5yp3m4rp0ud4j8ss39js2pn72a will you be adding Lightning address support and NIP-57 Zap support? 🥹

I don't see it yet in the Play Store (UK).

Is there an APK?

Nathan Day 2y ago

Got it!

Nathan Day 2y ago

No dice.

A GitHub link to install via Obtainium would be 🤌

iOS version still with issues. Also looking forward to giving it a shot! https://damus.io/note1dv5uwklrzfux9g25p6sdmda946cywk9z5cmp677ql959n4u2vwcsyu87j4

Have no issues as stated in this post

Rich Nost 2y ago

In what capacity is it custodial? I am seeing seed phrase backup options in settings.

Derek Ross 2y ago

You have a seed phrase, yes, but unless this runs a Lightning node on my phone, those sats have to be in someone's channel.

Derek Ross 2y ago

All L2 funds are stored in Liquid and swapped to Lightning when you make a payment.

TanukiBTC ⚡ 2y ago

How are the lightning fees? There are quite some wallets that make one heavily overpay

I think it uses greenlight cause that’s what Blockstream green uses

Usdt worse than fiat

Derek Ross 2y ago

Many people in developing nations need it.

ibe (no-till weed) 2y ago

Just like usd fiat…

Rich Nost 2y ago

I remember testing out Blockstream Aqua like a year and a half ago, and was like "This thing is dead simple. Why have I never heard of this?" I'm happy to see it did not die.

Derek Ross 2y ago

It launched just today to the public.

I see aqua is collecting users DNA. No thanks.

Btw what is the bitcoin chip?

Derek Ross 2y ago

I have no clue what that is. I wonder if it will be a hardware wallet for cold storage?

kidwarp 2y ago

I bet it’s a poker chip with QR code like old skool Cassius coins.

PriorBall 2y ago

Probably this small chip showed by this vid from btcandres https://fxtwitter.com/btcandres/status/1742673621062164963?s=46

They are a corporation based in the Honduras. Read their TOS and other policies. Made me jittery.

Derek Ross 2y ago

I'm familiar with Samson and Jan3.

IntuitiveGuy☯️ 2y ago

Wow looks cool.. I expect before end of 2024 one client will have already integrated a wallet with these features and maybe also #cashu #ecash 🍀💜

Frogfren17 ⚡️🐸 bitcoin liberation 2y ago

Who makes it?

I have little trust for new wallets.

Bitcoin will be worth more soon.

Bad actors will find ways to still it.

Derek Ross 2y ago

The company and person that I tagged in this note.

Meridian 2y ago

Aqua offers support for multiple different assets, so what exactly does the backup seed phrase represent? And can it be used to recover those different assets, if access to the app is no longer available?

BeeTC Bee Rancher 2y ago

It’s custodial? It says non-custodial…

mojoe 2y ago

It looks like a semi custodial approach ( like phoenix) , I ll looking for breeze which use an approach to run an ln node in the background of a phone. It’s not all in one but seems really promising in my pov

paulo 2y ago

It’s an interesting concept. I welcome this new tool.

Bitcoin Nora 1y ago

Is Aqua available in the UK?

Derek Ross 1y ago

I don't know? The APK is available worldwide though 🥹

How is that working out?

₿logging₿itcoin 1y ago

I like this wallet. I'd like the L-BTC to automatically convert to main-chain bitcoin after a certain threshold is met. When do you plan to FOSS it?
