I'll be hard pressed to use anything other than @Blockstream 's GreenWallet now that it has the easiest to use self-custodial mobile lightning wallet on the market. Onboarding someone with this wallet is about as easy as it was with Wallet of Satoshi ; user downloads GreenWallet, adds a lightning wallet, and you send them some sats via lightning to get their wallet started. They get inbound liquidity from the LSP and subsequent deposits over the initial channel require a small fee to enlarge the channel via splicing. In addition to this excellent first step, users are then able to expand into on-chain btc, and liquid all under the same simple 12 word recovery (I tested recovering the wallet into Green Wallet, and even the lightning wallet was just as I left it). The UI is also fantastic, it's the gold standard as far as I'm concerned and the wallet I'll be suggesting to new btc users ๐
Get the wallet today and test out sending 10000 sats to justbrian@blixtwallet.com as well today ๐

I didn't realise Green had a lightning option, I thought it was just BTC and liquid
ya! i think you gotta get it with testflight on ios otherwise with android you can get the apk from blockstream's website. take it for a ride, seriously impressive wallet now.
I can't see/find the LN option on Android. Am also a retard so, there's that.
Is the 12 word recovery phrase the same for both LN and On Chain wallet? If yes holly shit
I'm waiting for my Jade for this very reason. If there was also a fixed lnurl to receive sats it would be the definitive wallet.
This thing could be a game changer. Started experimenting with Liquid and swaps a few weeks ago.
The wallet feels really stable and predictable using Sideswap and Boltz.
Will try out the lighting implementation soon
I've got blockstream green for my bag, remember seeing a Ln bolt on when reading google play blurb, didn't have the knowledge back then to play with it
But seeing as I'm a Zeus, Phoenix, Alby master, I'll take a look ๐
It appears I *may* be able to do it on android, I'm going to have a proper look later, this could become my preferred wallet if it all works seamlessly
That is not a feature available in the app as far as I know.
