⚠ 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 ⚠

Off-chain data loss protection is present: in case of emergencies such as phone loss you will only need a mnemonic phrase to recover both on-chain Bitcoin balance and off-chain Lightning balance. Details on how this works can be found in wallet manual: http://lightning-wallet.com/

Watchtower service is present, too: if you ever use this wallet to receive Lightning payments then you won't have to worry about getting an app online periodically, more info on this here: https://medium.com/@akumaigorodski/watchtower-support-is-coming-to-bitcoin-lightning-wallet-8f969ac206b2
