around the U.S. open corn was dumped out of the market like sh*t. so some technical oriented guys gave up. looks like more sideways now. rally is delayed because it seems they don't want to have the corn to expensive to still fill their pockets at least until end of August.

By the end of this month we shall see +45K at least. There are huge huge shorts that need to be closed within next 10 days. Proudrekt will be rekt. Again.

I have bewen performing some fairly deep tests on the state of all lightning wallets currently. And though I would share a Mini Review
Custodial: You send bitcoin to these and then can use their lightning channels custodially. Easiest setup.
Wallet of Satoshi 9/10 This is the leader in custodial wallets. +Consistently low fees, even 0 sometimes (I do run a channel with them on my node so sending money back to my node is zero cost.) +Very rare that Tx fail. As in, I do not think I have seen it happen outside of pilot error. +Allows ad-hoc transactions (will create an invoice with no amount) +UI is decent This is a wallet I would DEFINITELY have on my phone if I were traveling. I believe they have a very good network of well connected nodes. I run a channel to it on my node, so if I were experiencing routing issues or high fees from my node I might keep this one loaded from my node just to take advantage of the connectivity.
Coinos.io 8.5/10 +a web wallet version +can do LIQUID! +very reliable well connected lightning -You have to be careful with managing your login
This one is really cool. The only reason it is not tied for first is it is possible to send this thing a transaction to an anonymous not logged in user. Which is ACTUALLY a FEATURE. It makes it able to be used with a little strange amount of privacy. But if you accidently do this and not notice the random name it gives you (Satoshi-#####) then you will have to contact the folks who run it to refund your money as it will be in some random wallet. This is more a ME problem than sn IT problem, though.
BlueWallet 5/10 -Fees are "OK" but could be 200-800 sats. Currently on chain is not much more. -Payments still fail as much as they ever did -Failed payments may appear to have worked and then fail later (yuck) -There is a delay in returning sats from a failed tx. -You can't easily spend bigger amounts
Whenever I get sats into this thing, I then work really hard to get them back off... lol It's like having hit your golfball onto a beach. Even as a lightning wallet that has been around a while I find it klugey
Non-custodial Neutrino private channel (These run a full neutrino node, and establish a single channel to the wallet company) They are sort of a hybrid between a custodial wallet and a full node wallet. Easier to set up, but has a little less smoothness than WoS, or Zeus for example
Phoenix 8/10 -Will handle ad-hoc amounts -Cheap fees -Can receive when in the background -Good UI Best in this class. Solid.
Breez 7/10 +Similar to Phoenix but not quite as smooth -Forces you to keep 600 sats there at all times (?) +Can do micro payments to streaming podcasts and has a podcast PLAYER in it now. Kinda neeto. +Can work in POS mode -I think this needs to be in the foreground on your device to receive payments. Meh. But just a little meh. Usually this is OK.
Muun 7/10 +Also similar to the two above +nice UI -Cannot do ad hoc amounts -VERY unique backup strategy.
Non-Custodial connected to your node. Hardest to set up. You have to connect these to a real node. You will be spending the money on THAT node so setup and maintenance is a bitch. You have to manage and balance channels etc. BUT, if you can do all this, it is also the most sovereign solution.
Zeus 9/10 +The nuts. +great UI +can do ad hoc amounts +can do MPP!!!! (Multi path Payments. I have actually not tried this yet. But it's in there... Could be good when needing to send a large payment.
Zap 8/10 +Very similar to Zeus, but not quite as slick a UI -And can't do ad hoc amounts.
So, say I was going to spend a week at Bitcoin beach. I would load Zeus and WoS on my phone. I would also have Strike standing by to drop more funds into my channels as needed (But if i spent all the money on my node, um, that would be a problem of some kind). I would probably try to live out of Zeus, but if I had any trouble I would just keep WoS going. Of all the wallets I feel like it is #1 in just payment ease. And since I have a channel to it I can swing money to it for free from my node in 1 hop. I was surprised that Bluewallet still stunk like it did when I first tried it... too bad.
Honorable mention. Strike 8/10 I don't know how to classify this one. It can work as a bitcoin wallet, a lightning wallet, and the cash app. The lightning features are kind of hidden, but you CAN sent a payment to a lightning destination with it, in fact I use to to refill my channels from time to time. I would not probably use it much on my trip, but I would certainly have it loaded as a sort of backup.
Thanks, really useful. I tried "Wallet of Satoshi" for fun, do you know if the lightning receive address generated each time expire after a while? Since you have no control over channels, would be interesting to know. EDIT: This was more fun than expected, talk about speed. cAPSLOCK, Post an LN address, want to send some "SatMerit" for your post (ran out of sMerit).

Hey cAPSLOCK ... thanks for your overview.
I remember recently that you had become a bit of a fan of Blockstream, so I was looking to see if you had included the blockstream green or the blockstream agua wallets... I had heard that green was more sophisticated and fully featured and agua was supposed to be more consumer (beginner) friendly. Just wondering whether you purposefully left those out or if there was a reason - perhaps time-consuming to play around with so many wallets, too.
No problem. I honestly think lightning is important and I want to contribute to adoption if I can. I am indeed becoming a blockbstream fan. Nobody's perfect, but I think Darth Adam and the rest of his death star are making some really good choices when it comes to building on the bitcoin ecosystem. I get that a lot of people don't like them. I think it's like anything that's a disagreement that branches off from a very fundamental level. If you agree with the architectural choices that they obviously support, then you see the decisions there making as sensible and helpful to the ecosystem. If you disagree with the architectural choices that they support then you see them as subverting Bitcoin and trying to capture fees for themselves. I often hear the argument that they're killing the income for the miners and stealing it for themselves. And it's true that liquid for example is paying that company. But the other argument that I hear that same camp make is that fees are going to be too high on the base chain. I see that as contradictory. Fees probably will be high but that will keep miners in business, and them creating a transactional layer that benefits them monetarily but keeps fees low for the users just seems like good business in every direction to me. I have digressed onto a Death Star support rant though let me get back to your question. My review is really just for lightning wallets so aqua and green are liquid wallets and there are not very many liquid wallets to review yet. there are those two, there's coinos.io and there's Sideswap. Maybe if this scaling layer continues to perk up I will write down some of my thoughts on those. But those are all good solutions in different ways I think green is a great wallet overall but not super notable either. Functionally liquid is an extension of Bitcoin and just feels like you're using Bitcoin. Lightning is much different does a lot of new stuff and is a little kludgier. Also aqua is iOS only so far and I'm an Android person. My suggestion for liquid wallets would be to stick with green for now if you want the surest operability of all the cutting edge stuff like tokens etc. I put my Jade token in my sideswap and now I'm having a hard time figuring out how to move it and I think that's the wallet implementation not pilot error. That's said, I think sideswap is a really really cool project.

He is considered one of the five titans of technical analysis, along with Dow, Gann, Elliott, and Merrill. Wyckoff was an avid student of the markets and an active ticker tape reader and trader. Wyckoff proposed a method to help understand price movements in stocks and the market as a whole: The Composite Man. ”…all the fluctuations in the market and in all the various stocks should be studied as if they were the result of one man’s operations. Let us call him the Composite Man, who, in theory, sits behind the scenes and manipulates the stocks to your disadvantage if you do not understand the game as he plays it; and to your great profit if you do understand it.” — Wyckoff The Composite Man![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ibb.co%2F1JgYZT1%2Fdbnabtq-062e912f-1097-4c61-8df5-81fd8747076d.jpg&t=665&c=J2ioujCBoqPy4A)
