Pro tip: latest version of Sparrow wallet (1.8.6) allows you to import your Samourai.txt backup file instead of your seed words. Only then need to enter your passphrase to decrypt it. Much better in case you do have some key logging software on your computer.

Sorry to hear that. They’re a 150 year old cult of heretics, completely divorced from the 2000 year old historical Orthodox Church that Christ established, which established the Canon of Scripture (books of the Bible) 1500 years ago and knows how to properly interpret it.
The Bible is 100% true and infallible, but that doesn’t mean that your private interpretations are infallible. This is the problem that is especially problematic in Protestant and other Christian sects. They read it plainly and literally, without understanding how the Church understands and has interpreted these texts for 2000 years.
Then they come to wildly inaccurate interpretations, especially when it comes to the book of Revelation and end times.

It has to do with Zeus’s new lightning addresses that leverage HODL invoices.
The payment is in transit until I open my wallet to receive it. Once I opened the wallet and clicked receive they payment is approved and sent to my wallet.

Not sure what specifically you’re asking.
The reason why it would be nice to use other relays is that you wouldn’t rely on SimpleX servers to be up, they could shut down as a project and we could still have failover/redundancy.
From a privacy perspective, SimpleX is far superior to Nostr DMs due to its architecture. A relay runner can’t even tell how many users are using it, since there aren’t usernames.

In a high fee environment, it actually makes sense to go into higher denomination pools.
For example, if you are gonna mix 1.1M sats, it’s much cheaper to mix in the 1M sat pool instead of the 100k sat pool due to miner fees.
Spitting your 1.1M sats into 10-11 pre-mix UTXOs then having those enter a mix is incredibly expensive.
Even with the lower flat rate 5k sat pool fee, it makes more sense to mix in the 1M sat pool with a 50k sat pool fee.
