Liability for other peoples funds is no joke, and if you can't provide 100% uptime or guarantees of security, it could be dangerous.
Encourage your friends to start their own Alby Hub. They can do it, it's dead simple 💪
Only in rare circumstances should you onboard friends, and you should document who you have onboarded specifically in a safe notetaking place in case wallet services are deprecated and you need to alert everyone (example: bluewallet, Phoenix, Mutiny were all deprecated and I had to warn many orange pill'd friends)
quotingToday Alby Hub 1.7.2 was released which includes a new Friends & Family app for quickly onboarding (you guessed it) your friends and family to bitcoin and lightning, powered by your hub's liquidity. They get a wallet without having to understand lightning or have their own channels, and not rely on large custodial services. They can get their own lightning address with an Alby Account, or connect their new wallet to the Alby extension, or very soon connect to Alby's new mobile app, Alby Go.
