NEW TUTORIAL:

Blink Wallet (Formerly Bitcoin Beach)

-Send/receive Bitcoin and USD

-Convert between them seamlessly

-Find local Bitcoin merchants

-Learn & Earn

-Get your own lightning address

For the beginners out there, this is a solid first BTC/LN experience that I might actually prefer to WoS

A 48+ minutes tutorial?! Two questions right off: is it no-KYC? And is it non-custodial? If not...

As a Blink wallet user, I can tell you that it is non-KYC, and while it is custodial, it's open source, so anyone can review its code. So, IMO, it's a great bridge wallet for on-chain and Lightning sats, and a great place to hold some sats for spending, but not a great wallet for holding large amounts for a long time.

It wants your phone number.

Sound strategy. I think on a three layer approach.

A) Cold storage/ Hardwallet: longt term and significant hodl.

B) Self custody, mobile wallet (e.g. Green wallet) for just in case needs.

C) Echange wallet with debit card and lightning integration.

Unfortunately...
