I would sell them the sats myself and get them set up on Wallet of Satoshi. That's probably the quickest and simplest way to get them started. From there if they want more I'd direct then to Strike and start talking about self custody.

I would agree, getting set up on lightning with small amounts is difficult for a first time user. This is the way I got started

Thanks for your input gentlemen 🤙

Ooh I want in. I’ll #zap this Wizard

I got five on it

Both those are good imo. If I had to choose I guess I'd go with Strike only because the fee to buy via debit card is slightly cheaper than the CashApp fee to buy

🙏

Either one is good. I like Strike for this feature 👇

Any service selling onchain bitcoin would be fine to purchase the initial $20 onchain bitcoin.

After that, install Wallet of Satoshi and send those $20 onchain bitcoin to Wallet of Satoshi to have Lightning.

This way your bitcoin student will know that bitcoin is initially onchain and Lightning is Level 2.

After that, start talking about privacy, custodial vs non-custodial etc

I hope this helps.

Good suggestion, thank you 👍
