Replying to Avatar Marcelinho

which is the better recommendation for beginners?

1. stacking sats with lightning

2. stacking sats on an exchange

I think I would prefer 1. until 5 mio sats and then swapping to onchain.

On exchange? Never. NY🗝️ NY🧀

I stopped recommending Lightning to newbies at all.

Newbies don’t want to spend #Bitcoin anyway. Most just want NGU.

In my experience the step from stacker to user is about few month to 1 year and in that time they can learn about the downsides of lightning and stay away from it completely.

Much better than going with the only solution #lightning has: custodial apps. 🤮

Agree and disagree 😜

the problem is many want to start with small amounts and onchain is simply impractical at these prices
