Wallet Of Satoshi

But

It's custodial. And if you're in the US, you're sol.

You can use WoS in the US with a VPN.

True, but you don't want your access to your funds to be entirely dependent on a third party.

This is true.

It didn't take me long to learn Phoenix. Zeus and Mutiny are cool.

For custodial, Strike is dead simple.

Strike = KYC ๐Ÿ‘Ž

Strike already equals three strikes

Why the downvote on strike? Noob and just started using it. Seems like a clean solution.

KYC = Know Your Client = They care more about pleasing their masters (government) than protecting their clients' privacy, all while making money of their clients.

Keep away from KYC-based establishments.

Good to know. Gonna look into it more for sure.

With a few thousand or even 10s of thousands of sats, opening channels with Mutiny, phoenix or Zeus is a waste of time and will eat through your sats in fees.

If you are just getting started on nostr, nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg internal wallet (built into the client) is probably the best. Then learn about self custody as you buy more and upgrade to a better wallet like mutiny, phoenix or Zeus.

Shame wos is not in us, was the literal easiest

I've got getalby sitting in zeus and took me a few attempts to figure it out

So not very beginner friendly ๐Ÿ˜•

Phoenix.

Non-custodial: Phoenix

Custodial: Blink

Both open-source
