Atom Lightning Wallet description
⚠ Beta quality software, do not put too much money in it ⚠
⚠ IMPORTANT: be sure to save a mnemonic phrase once a new wallet is created. Having a mnemonic phrase is the ONLY way to recover your balance in case of serious bugs or phone loss ⚠
This is a standalone lite Atom wallet with a fully functional Lightning node built on top of it.
It allows for sending and receiving of regular on-chain Atom transactions as well as off-chain transactions also known as ‘Lightning payments’ which make private, instant, cheap and trustless value transfers possible.
This is a first Lightning wallet on market which offers off-chain data loss protection: in case of emergencies such a phone loss you will only need a mnemonic phrase to recover both on-chain Atom balance and off-chain channel balance. Details on this can be found in wallet manual: http://lightning-wallet.com/
Note: this wallet requires transactions to get 6 confirmations to become spendable because currently BCA network has a relatively low hashrate.
