One of the most frequently asked questions a new Nostr user has is: what wallet should I use?
As we know, this answer is always changing as services come and go and/or needs change.
I wanted to create this guide as an evergreen resource for you (and me) to quickly get an overview of the best options at any moment in time.
For a wallet to be Nostr-friendly, it has to have the following:
- Support for Nostr Wallet Connect (NWC)
- A Nostr presence -- this shows that the provider knows what's up and is building with the plebs
With that said, here's the list in no particular order. Check it out, try one on, zap and get zapped!
