Title: Lightining Network Green Wallet
Post by: mendace on June 12, 2023, 07:29:15 AM
Fantastic!!!  Blockstream's Green wallet looks like it will release support for the Lighting Network in future versions thanks to greenlight technology and breez's service as liquidity service provider.

with 2FA Protected Accounts and wallet recovery using email, Green Wallet is not a best bitcoin wallet or at least a good option, even if I used the 2 out of 3 multi-signature option, I think the fees would be a little higher.

I searched here https://blockstream.com/green/, and did not can find details about the Lightning Network, will it be affiliated with the Liquid Network, or in the same way that the Lightning Network works on the Electrum wallet.

Blockstream is advertising this new wallet on twitter as almost like hardware wallet for Lightning Network.
I wouldn't agree with that statement since anyone can run their own node with hardware wallets, they don't need to use trezor or ledger node.

Once it's goes live I'm sure a lot of us will put it thought our own personal testing.

But it's kind of interesting when you think about it, bluewallet gave up on handling peoples funds for LN and handing the back end LN node. But in the past couple of weeks there have been a couple of other wallets (this one and lifpay https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5456290) staring to do it.

Makes you wonder who is 'right'

Not your keys not your coins, but for small amounts does it really matter? I guess everyone is going to have their own not over this amount point for doing things in an insecure way.

Don't forget Wallet of Satoshi. There was some talk about this wallet in the Croatian local board recently. It's a custodial service, but I was surprised to find out that if you deposit to WoS, you can use your coins either on-chain or off-chain. One balance works for both layers and you choose which one you want to use. A very simple entry for Lightning Network beginners.
