Starting to look like on chain only is the way to go

I'm just a guy that sends and receives money from time to time.

RIP Phoenix wallet.

Ideally, the #Bitcoin wallet you choose should be self-custodial, Bitcoin-only, and open source (or at least, verifiable source code), for maximum peace of mind. nostr:note1nd5cvgg8dwd7my4shwp6rvyjg07zuwy0x93r6eutuzhr0azl68yqj8fzah

As I always said...

Bitcoin is only for the brave, not for the weak...

Stop crying like babies, act like grown up men !

Self-custody is a hill to die on.

But so is self-hosting.

Intermediaries: you will deputized, or you will be destroyed. Maybe not today, but they're coming for you.

I am also thinking amping up my game on privacy, anonymity, and stacking. Let's see others take on it!

I assume it is inevitable. The worst the economy becomes, the more people want to escape, and if too much money escapes, they have to confiscate to keep up the system. Might see it wrong.

iCloud private relay only works in Safari, if you are using Nostr on Damus app it doesn’t go through the relay,

I recommend either Proton VPN, Mullvad or IVPN, all are great choices, and select a server in a privacy friendly country, like Sweden or Switzerland,

if you want to use Tor tho, the only trustable client is Orbot for the iPhone

Depends what you mean by security. iPhone is already secure assuming your device is fully updated.

If you mean privacy, there's little you can do if your iCloud account is tied to your identity. Apple knows everything about your phone usage regardless of a VPN.

If you want to hide your IP from Nostr relays a VPN would do that. Mulvad, Proton & IVPN are what most mention.

I personally wouldnt bother with Tor unless your going full on anon, creating a new nsec and willing to put up with a slower than expected performance forever.

I’ve been using the iCloud private relay too. So far seems to be good enough to not give away my actual ip. I use Proton vpn on laptop and desktop

Thanks.

FYI you can pay for Mullvad with sats

Ivpn buddy. Completely anon payment and usage.

Ditch the iPhone.

Orbot plus tor relays (there are not too many unfortunately) check my list

I use Mullvad on my phone and it seems to work well, but I’m a VPN noob.

What is the iCloud+ private relay?

Would you sell your KYC corn where you bought it?
