It’s a choice though, right? Anyone can participate on LN in a permissionless way if they want.

Sure, but those using those wallets aren't really "using" Bitcoin are they

In my experience, almost nobody is actually interested in sovereign money when buying/selling $1 coconuts at a farmer's market. But the successful coconut vendor who has now received $500 of Bitcoin IOUs is more interested in learning more about sovereign money. Which is where we come in with free hardware wallets, education & advice. I view it as a back door to hack the mindset of your average person into caring about self-sovereign money.

Curious what type of HW wallets do you provide in that environment? Am thinking of a similar project where I live.

Recently we’ve been recommending nostr:npub1tcnvkw8fu29zspw54tuhfrk0tkzn6qdupmc45slt4zmase3dzqask6ctu0 and nostr:npub12ctjk5lhxp6sks8x83gpk9sx3hvk5fz70uz4ze6uplkfs9lwjmsq2rc5ky's ColdCard. We keep some Jade’s, BitBox, TapSigners and Trezors in the office. We walk people through each, talk about the pros/cons, and let each person make their own informed decision.

Sounds like a cool project I'll donate some sats 🤙
