Who..? You? 😘💋
Yes, there is a chance Proton Wallet is a honeypot.
Let's assume it is one: We are not their target audience. People who know no better already live in a honey pot. An opportunity to expose a taste of freedom tech to 100M+ users, shitcoin-free? That's massive. Most of them won't fall into the rabbit hole, but some of them will. Net positive.
Just like our life paths are all different, our ways to understand bitcoin are too.
absolutely, no shitcoin, non-custodial, good documentation for newbies. Its great.
People need to realize that if you're reading this on Nostr, you are absolutely not the target audience.

Why? Because you need a proton mail for using the wallet ?
I'm open to multiple wallets alternatives, I won't be stacking all, or even 70%, of my lifetime corn savings in a single cold wallet key. That's a terrible idea.
Split your savings in several wallets, with different safety methods. This is the best security
But it should be said. People should know that proton has been forced to give up info.
Just thought an asterisk should be there.
They are incentivised to make this work and do it right. It would allow users who already pay for their subscriptions in BTC to have that subscription automated in house.
Could be. The proper setup for a wallet is self custody with passive bitcoin chain sync via #blockstream satellite.
People will learn privacy the hard way.
Are there really ANY companies that WOULDN'T give up customer info to local authorities if ordered to? Please name them.
