@nprofile…fg9w are we really limited to just nunchuk and BlueWallet for good multisig on mobile in 2026?
BlueWallet is great but “feels” clunky. Nunchuk comes with all this inheritance crap and email signup requirement.
Am I missing something?

Incredible! Thank you!
The use case is that I believe it’s too common that bitcoiners wind up with 5-6 wallet apps on their phone, where the fiat analogue is 2-3 at most, for many people 1-2.
Cove has beautiful UX and so much going for it, and given the top tier hardware wallet support, it strikes me that it’s primarily a savings/hodl wallet versus a spending wallet.
So I figured it would be good to consolidate multiple wallets into Cove, with the majority for monitoring purposes. Hence watch-only suffices. For multi-sig, this is indeed complex and can be handled with nunchuk for people who want to manage multi sig on mobile, or (more likely imo) handled via Sparrow/Electrum.
Hope this helps!

OK, I totally acknowledge that (and agree with the perspective).
Is there—or could there be—a means of “watching” a multisig wallet in Cove? Explicitly I mean no ability to sign and broadcast a transaction; genuinely only watching the wallet?

2025-12-31 01:08:23 UTC

@nprofile…2k3m forgive me if I’ve missed something but what’s the status on multisig support in Cove?

Hear me out: your nostr keypair doesn’t need to be super-protected and storing it in iCloud/Google Drive behind biometric auth is absolutely fine + delivers a 10x experience for normies.
It should be the default.

The socials are just opt-in spam now. Like a Hotmail inbox out of control.
The failure to recognise it is the most staggering to me; the unimportant and the deranged is given as much airtime and credibility as the critical and profound.
This is because the old guard have totally lost control and has resorted to simply reading the internet to the elderly.

@npub1az9…m8y8 noob question. is there an equivalent for RFC 1918 for bitcoin addresses? ie to share UTXOs could we do NAT’s “hack” for IPv4 “to Bitcoin”?
If this has already been investigated, or this is what Lightning is, etc… I apologise for my poor understanding.
I’m conceptually thinking of a defined range of `bc1p…` addresses that represent private space, where a new, “local” address format can transact “off chain”
…maybe this idea is horseshit. IDK.

Totally agree. Bitcoin has major UX/design issues. Or maybe the target audience is just completely misaligned (ie the nerds are still telling the normies their apps are for them).

It lives! But it lives on here: https://github.com/braydonf/satdress
It’s definitely the best experience, but annoying to set up. I’m working on packaging it up, alongside pwallet, but I’m not a programmer so I rely on my mixed-bag AI friends.

It seems to me that the ideal for *many* enthusiasts and self hosters is indeed phoenixd+pwallet (removes masses of overhead and saves hdd space). If you also have a cloud server/VPS & wireguard, adding satdress then gets you what the Phoenix app can’t: always on zaps/lnurl. More people need to know about this!

2025-04-27 11:51:43 UTC

I actually wound up chatgpt’ing a docker-compose that combines phoenixd and pwallet. Very happy. I think I will look into contributing to the UI of pwallet (logo, colour scheme, font).
First I want to get satdress working with PhoenixD, however, for LN address and NWC support.

Even with this “juicy gossip” factored in, why the fuck would the conclusion to that be to push Telegram, of all solutions? Truly backdoored garbage, full of spam and bots. Ultimately, Signal is the best mainstream option until and as when SimpleX or Nostr DMs with stronger privacy guarantees are ready to scale with products that appeal.
