What wallets is everyone using to onboard family and friends that show interest in bitcoin?

I’d feel 100% comfortable recommending Sparrow on desktop, but for mobile I’m less sure. Ideally it would be onchain/lightning because so much of the payment infrastructure is through lightning now.

It would be nice if there was native tor integration so they could utilize my node rather than a public one. I think this is the main thing Phoenix Wallet is missing. Orbot is so ass I can’t push anyone towards that haha. 😆

I recommend phoenix to my friends .. Its very easy to use and understand.. Own node is not important for the first time experiencing bitcoin ... And it can add a delay and make the experience less "impressing" ... Once they want to dig deepe i'll show them how to connect to my node and explain them ...

If they really have no understanding of Bitcoin, I'm still recommending muun. When they start asking then i bump them up to something else But still nobody i know cares for bitcoin hahaha

Zeus, best for node‑connected users + Tor support. BlueWallet, great all‑around on‑chain + Lightning, node optional. Breez, easiest Lightning wallet that’s non‑custodial. Electrum (mobile), solid, node‑connectable on‑chain + Lightning.

I still have them do on-chain and lightning separately, explaining that Lightning is like their checking account, or a small savings that you build up a bit before putting the funds into long-term savings (on-chain). As for what wallet, generally stick with Phoenix for lightning and Nunchuk for on-...
