My dream wallet: - Lightning - On-Chain - eCash - Nostr integration - NWC - Custom LN address - Self-custodial - On-the-fly, background channel management - Customizable lightning fees - Tor connection option - Exportable transaction log (csv, JSON) - Integrated buy/sell Right now, I think Breez comes closest, tho it's still missing some key features. Thoughts? #blog #bitcoin

Great additions. I was thinking about each of those when I was pondering the different wallets earlier today, and they just didn't pop into my head when I was writing the list. Thanks for adding these!

Unfortunately, Breez is only available for mobile. Additionally, it doesn't have any nostr integrations. You can use it to zap, but you can't use it to receive zaps because there's no LN address. There's also no NWC. I still think it's one of the best wallets available due to its dynamic on-chain send/receive, and on-the-fly lightning channel management that doesn't require any user intervention.

You should look into Cashu Wallet, and Coinos. Cashu Wallet is the basis for Primal's wallet. If you're familiar with Primal's wallet, then you already know how to use Cashu. It's an ecash wallet that also supports Lightning, and it has NWC for full integration with Nostr. Coinos provides similar functionality; Lightning, Liquid, eCash. NWC and a customized LN address for full integration with Nostr. Both wallets are web-based, so they can be accessed from the desktop, anywhere you go. Between the two, Coinos is a bit more user friendly, but it's custodial, meaning Coinos actually holds your coins. Cashu, on the other hand, is a non-custodial wallet, meaning you hold the keys, and possession of your coins. Both are stable and reliable, and if you're looking for something to primarily interact with Nostr (zaps), both are fully suited to the task. I wouldn't use either of them for storing large quantities of bitcoin. For that, I think you want something that's based on on-chain bitcoin. Something like Electrum, or Mycelium. Cashu Wallet — cashu.me Coinos Wallet — coinos.io

Oh! Well, Breez has an integrated POS with customizable inventory, and service list so merchants can easily accept bitcoin for their products and services. That might be very useful for you.

Most wallets are already a paid service. They receive their money by way of transaction fees that are inciuded in addition to standard network fees. Most are in 0.5-2% range, so it's pretty reasonable.

For the most part, their fees are very reasonable and you don't even notice them. And for the features they provide, I'm happy to give them a small bite at the apple on all my receives. When it comes to money handling, I think it's better to contribute to a reasonable salary for the devs than to rely on the goodwill and sustained interest of someone who's doing it as a hobby.

BTC pay integrates with Breez Wallet. I was just reading a support doc about that. NWC is a nice convenience, but it's not really a primary requirement. There are other features that are more important. I hope you find something that meets your core requirements, and meets your needs!
