My Energy is:
"#UnsupervisedChildren will be given free #USB Flashdroves with @tails_live / @tails / #Tails on and taught proper #E2EE with #PGP/MIME, #XMPP+#OMEMO, #SelfCustody as well as the concept of #STFUfriday!"

@m4ra which is why having real #E2EE with #SelfCustody of all the Keys is vital!
- Only you can then control access and thus refuse to (self-) incriminate!
️ Introduction
The Lightning Network (LN) enables fast and low-cost Bitcoin transactions, but opening a channel requires an initial deposit. Different wallets have varying minimums, affecting usability, liquidity, and transaction efficiency. This guide explores the best wallets for opening a Lightning channel with minimal deposits, focusing on self-custody and ease of use.
Wallets with the Lowest Deposit Requirements
Phoenix Wallet (Mobile: Android & iOS) Min. deposit: ~10,000 satsCustodial model: Non-custodial, but uses Phoenix’s liquidity serviceBest for: Users who want a seamless Lightning experience with automatic channel management

Custodial model: Fully non-custodial, self-hosted

Choosing the Right Wallet
If you want the lowest deposit and an easy experience → Phoenix Wallet
If you need a flexible mobile wallet with services → Breez Wallet
If you run your own node & want full control → Zeus Wallet
If you use Windows and need self-custody → LND or CLN
Each wallet has trade-offs, so choose based on your experience level and needs. If you’re serious about Lightning, running your own node is the best way to ensure privacy, sovereignty, and liquidity control.

@truls46 Ein gutes Gegenbeispiel zu @signalapp ist @monocles / #monoclesChat:
Es werden keine persönliche Daten verlangt!
Es wird ein offener Standard (#XMPP+#OMEMO) genutzt, sodass #SelfCustody und #Datenhoheit gewährleistet ist!
Der Dienst ist zwar kostenpflichtig (€2 p.m.), aber komplett anonym bezahlbar (inkl. #Monero & #CashByMail)!
Nutzung von @torproject #Tor wird nicht verhindert oder blockiert; @guardianproject / #Orbot wird unterstützt!
In #Deutschland gibt's immernoch #Rechtsstaatlichkeit, anders als in den #USA!
Anders als #Signal ist #monocles ehrlich, was Sicherheit und Datenschutz angeht...
Ich denke mal das sollte hinreichend meine Argumebte darlegen.
- Kernpunkt ist und bleibt: Signal ist bestenfalls gemeingefährlich-inkompetent oder ein #Honeypot!
docs.monocles.eumonocles chat - monocles Documentation
@erebion @inaruck genau das ist der Falsche Ansatz, da Threat Models sich ständig verschieben und nicht ausgegangen werden kann, dass es dabei bleibt.
- Das technisch sicherstmögliche auf verbreiteter Hardware & Systemen ist und bleibt #XMPP+#OMEMO über #Tor, idealerweise an einen #OnionService, weil damit echte #SelfCustody echte #E2EE machbar ist!
Keine*r deloyed drölfzig Messenger oder migriert bedarfsweise User*innen umher.
- Anders als #zentralisiert|e & #proprietär|e Systeme (egal ob #Signal, #SkyECC, #ANØM, #EncroChat, etc.) ist XMPP+OMEMO an sich sicher!
@erebion @inaruck es gibt soviele Gründe weshalb Mensch nicht @signalapp vertrauen sollte.
Aber um es nochnal klar zu erklären:
#Signal verlangt #Telefonnummer = #PII (Persönlich identifizierbare Informationen). [Und nein, sich irgendwo zwielichtig ne Nummer als Ausrede greift nicht!]
Signal ist zentralisiert & #SingleVendor sowie #SingleProvider!
Signal fällt wegen Sitz in den #USA unter #CloudAct = inhärent mit #DSGVO & #BDSG inkompatibel!
Signal erlaubt keine #SelfCustody aller Keys und ist deshalb für Einige Angriffsmethoden offen!
Nur echte #Dezentralisierung wie bei #XMPP+#OMEMO kann #Datenschutz, #Informationssicherheit und #Vertraulichkeit sicherstellen.
- Anders als Signal kann @monocles nicht gegen Nutzer basierend auf Herkunft (#Rufnummer!) diskriminieren und anders als Signal funktioniert XMPP+OMEMO problemlos über @torproject / #Tor und kann als #OnionService #SelfHosted werden, für maximale #Privatsphäre und #Datenhoheit!
Die strukturellen Probleme von Signal machen es angesichts einer #gleichgeschaltet|en #USA ein absolut unnötiges #Risiko, denn ich garantiere @Mer__edith wird für keine*n User*in lebenslange #Beugehaft riskieren!
- Genauso wie's keine "#LoglessVPN|s" gibt!
Und #Signal ist sehr wohl in der Lage #Govware - #Backdoors zu integrieren, denn sonst wären die wegen #ITAR bereits geknastet worden, weil diese #Nutzer*innen aus #Kuba, #Nordkorea und #Russland haben!

@voxel @SignalUpdateInfo The fact that #Trump gasn't flexed #CloudAct against @signalapp is not worth a sigh of relief!
- Migrate to #XMPP+#OMEMO for real #E2EE with #SelfCustody of all the Keys!

@lauren no, because @signalapp is subject to #CloudAct (= incompatible with #GDPR & #BDSG if you ever care!) and collects #PII in the firirm of #PhoneNumbers, which are at best pseudonymous but trivial to track and at most means that people inviting others without their consent comitted an illegal disclosure if PII!
- Use real #E2EE with #SelfCustody of all the keys that isn't a #proprietary #SingleVendor & #SingleProvider solution that peddles a #shitcoin #scam!
Give #XMPP+#OMEMO a shot: @monocles / #monocles & @gajim / #gajim.

@Beggarmidas @Em0nM4stodon #Govware aside, I think @signalapp 's #architecture of being a #centralized, #proprietary, #SingleVendor & #SingleProvider "solution" that.collects #PII like #PhoneNumbers will bite it in it's rear, cuz I'd not count on @Mer__edith not breaking when facing life in prison under torturous conditions (by European Standards).
- Whereas @monocles / #monoclesChat, @gajim / #gajim and other #XMPP+#OMEMO clients do real #E2EE with #SelfCustody of all the keys!

@Chiquidrakula @COSAntiFascists @iris @Em0nM4stodon @cryptoparty@mastodon.earth @cryptoparty@chaos.social @thunderbird
#FACT: It's not real #E2EE unless you have100% #SelfCustody of all the keys!
- By contrast, @monocles are upfront and honest that if you use their #WebMailer's built-in Encryption / Decryption, your Keys *will be stored on the Servers [Something that @protonprivacy / #ProtonMail does too but tries to leave out as a little detail]...
Thus the correct way as #monoclesMail says is to use your own client and keep your keys to yourself.
- Cuz unlike #Proton, #monocles actually offer standard protocols to use with regular eMail clients
Now OFC, monocles charge €2 p.m. for their starter account but they also accept #SEPA #WireTransfer, #Monero, #CashByMail, #Stripe and #PayPal for #payments, so it's pretty flexible and affordable given they don't put #ads in your #inbox or invade user privacy!

@COSAntiFascists @iris @Em0nM4stodon I'd not trust @protonprivacy in that regard because they have access to keys and have been caught snitching on #ProtonMail users without a warrant.
- Instead the proper way to do it is to learn how to use #PGP/MIME (visit your local @cryptoparty@mastodon.earth / @cryptoparty@chaos.social / #CryptoParty) which is easy in 2025 thanks to @monocles / #monoclesMail & @thunderbird as clients.
Furthermore, #monocles - and every other decent provider - won't bamboozle you with false promises they legally can't fulfill and #DigitalSnakeoil services...
- Only #SelfCustody can guarantee real #E2EE as only if you are in control of all the keys can you be shure of the #security and #integrity of the messages...
Please amp up you #ITsec, #InfoEec, #OpSec and #ComSec because naively believing a corporation to not snitch on you disqualifies you at best if not put other peoples' lives in danger!
