Nostr Web Client

What wallets is everyone using to onboard family and friends that show interest in bitcoin?

I’d feel 100% comfortable recommending Sparrow on desktop, but for mobile I’m less sure. Ideally it would be onchain/lightning because so much of the payment infrastructure is through lightning now.

It would be nice if there was native tor integration so they could utilize my node rather than a public one. I think this is the main thing Phoenix Wallet is missing. Orbot is so ass I can’t push anyone towards that haha. 😆

I recommend phoenix to my friends .. Its very easy to use and understand.. Own node is not important for the first time experiencing bitcoin ... And it can add a delay and make the experience less "impressing" ... Once they want to dig deepe i'll show them how to connect to my node and explain them the difference of onchain and lighning ...

Yeah Phoenix is great, and you’re probably right about the own node. If you’re initially onboarding perfect privacy just isn’t reasonable lol.

It also saves you the time of going super in depth just for them to not care/move on.
