Providing Lightning control custody to the signer offers high security through creating a smaller attack surface ensuring that:
βΒ End users always controls funds
βοΈΒ Can sign from mobile or web browser
π«Β App devs never hold funds
In more good news, the VLS signer is now fully integrated with Greenlight. Developers building with the gl-client or other layers like the Breez SDK can now easily access the signer without needing modifications.

This new Lightning signer will be available to use on multiple platforms and is non-custodial.
Users will be able to define rules so that the signer only signs certain types of transactions like channel openings or routing forwards making running a Lightning node a lot safer.

i almost bought one. i had the green one in the check out basket when the french company announced their key service. when i waited for 2 days, the green one was gone.
then i saw recommendations of the seed signer -i built it from the components i already had. i just had to add a camera. when i soldered the pins, the camera attachment broke off and i had to order another pi zero. now i have it set up properly. love it.
it deletes the seed when you disconnect. i recommend the same with any hardware wallet. reset it when you log off. do not store the seed in any wallet.
