Is SHOCKWALLET non-custodial?

SHOCKWALLET is a non-custodial wallet client by design. Your private keys and node credentials never leave your control, and we have no access to your funds.

However, the level of custody depends on how you choose to connect:

Self-Hosted — 100% non-custodial. Connect your own node for complete financial sovereignty.

Bootstrap Mode — A quick-start option that functions as a temporary service credit to get you up and running instantly. Once your balance is sufficient, we'll guide you through upgrading to your own VPS or cloud node.

Shared Node — A trust-based setup where you connect to a node run by a trusted friend, family member, business, or community organizer.

Self-Custody Open Source

Do I need my own Lightning node to use SHOCKWALLET?

No. You have three options depending on how much sovereignty you want:

Bootstrap — use Lightning.pub's hosted node with zero setup. Just click "Bootstrap" when asked. Once your balance is sufficient, we'll guide you through upgrading to your own VPS or cloud node.

Self-hosted — run your own Lightning node for complete financial sovereignty. Share access and invite others to use your node.

Trustodial mode — connect to a trusted business, friend, or family member's shared node and get started in seconds with confidence.

What is a Shared Node?

Shared node features let one person or organization run a Lightning node and share access with friends, family, or their local community — no technical setup required on the recipient's end. Just send them an invitation.

The node administrator manages the channels, liquidity, and node infrastructure, while guests get a lightweight, instant, bespoke experience.

What platforms does SHOCKWALLET support?

SHOCKWALLET runs on every major mobile platform and via web browser on both mobile and desktop. Simply ensure you signin on the different devices using the same nostr keys to keep them all in sync.

Open it on your phone, tablet, or computer — your balance, contacts, and history are always exactly where you left them. Google Services are used exclusively for push notifications on the native Android build.

Is SHOCKWALLET free?

Yes — free to download, free to use, and open source on GitHub under the GNU AGPL v3.0 license.

Standard Lightning Network routing fees (typically fractions of a cent) may apply to payments — these go to node operators, not to SHOCKNET.

What is CLINK?

CLINK is an open protocol for Lightning interactions over Nostr relays—bypassing the need for a complex setup of web servers, pre-shared secrets, or slow and unreliable peer-to-peer onion messages.

CLINK makes using Lightning to pay people and services you love, or getting paid, more accessible than ever before.

Specs and live demos are at CLINKme.dev.

How is SHOCKWALLET different from Cash App, Strike, Coinbase, etc?

Centralized financial platforms are closed-loop, KYC-gated custodial services. They control the ledger, restrict withdrawals, and dictate how and where you can transact.

SHOCKWALLET is a sovereign utility. It is an open-source, non-custodial client that gives you a wide spectrum of choice: you can connect to your own node, join a shared community node, or use temporary bootstrap credits. Your keys stay on your device, and you choose your own level of trust and infrastructure.

What is the relationship between SHOCKWALLET and Lightning.pub?

Lightning.pub is the open-source Lightning node software that powers SHOCKWALLET's backend. Think of Lightning.pub as the engine and SHOCKWALLET as the dashboard.

You can connect SHOCKWALLET to any compatible Lightning.pub instance — the public bootstrap node, a friend's self-hosted pub, or your own. Both are part of the SHOCKNET open-source ecosystem.
