you can swap via boltz.exchange

Good is hard to answer. I’d watch some of those videos to try to learn more and see if it’s a good fit for your use case. Nothing is perfect.

Liquid and lightning will require some fees, though much smaller than on chain.

Liquid has tradeoffs & this is how I see it.

It's not as low risk as Onchain Bitcoin or self custody Lightning.

It has less risk than a single party, custodial lightning wallet.

It's not as fast as lightning (1 min Vs 5-10 secs), but fees are cheap & you don't need to manage channel liquidity.

It also seems relatively easy to move in & out of. Moving in/out onchain Bitcoin has fees & so do the swap services (more like lightning fees though).

A big downside is the small number of people that are willing to receive it.

Downloading & setting up Green wallet is required.

Feel free to send me your Liquid Bitcoin 🧑

I didn't see your address there.

I just sent you a buck & it cost 11 cents.

It's better for bigger transactions because fees are based on Tx size & not value.
