at some point i was recommending samurai wallet to my friends. one of them i met recently was stacking sats actively, but after the 0 balance experience he got disappointed and never came back to stacking.

What 0 balance experience?
You mean Samourai stopped working and need the sats to be migrated? Nothing was lost I hope.
0 balance experience?
node was taken down and when opening the app it showed 0 sats. friend didn't write down the passphrase and kind of gave up on ever recovering. after some time he tried again and randomly entered a phrase that was the correct one. not fun
exactly. node was down, balance 0.
forgetting the passphrase didn't help :|
luckily he was able to recover. but the damage was done, you know....
I know this kind of stressful experience. I had a wallet that showed 0 balance suddenly due to defaut derivation changed and a bug preventing to change the derivation path back. I rapidely understood that nothing was lost but still had to wait weeks to recover.
It really is easier to use Bitcoin without fluff 😁
I don’t even both orange pilling. You either found it on your own and did your own work or you don’t deserve to be here. It’s really that simple.
