I want to withdraw BTC from Kraken to Cake Wallet. I just started using crypto about 15 minutes ago, first time.

1. In Kraken, should I choose to use the Lightning network or the Bitcoin network for the withdrawal?

2. In cake wallet, which choice should I select for my receive address: Segwit P2WPKH, Taproot, Segwit P2WSH, Segwit-compatible, Legacy, anonPayInvoice, or anonPayDonationLink?

Thanks!
 
1. Always choose the main network. it's a lot slower than lightning but literally no vendors anywhere accept it and you'd have to pay fees for bridging back anyway.

2. just use whatever is default in cake, i.e p2wpkh. it's very rare that the average end user will need to mess with that setting in any wallet, especially if you're conducting simple p2p transactions.
 
Kraken sucks made it impossible to move coin i ended up abandoning the account with like 20$ in it. Pos.
odd to hear. i move funds in and out of kraken on a constant basis for like half a decade and never experienced delays that weren't specifically mentioned by kraken at the time due to issues with any particular chain. they always process my withdrawals in like 5 seconds even for monero.

They seem to be a lot more scrutiny from new accounts in the first cpl weeks.
 
I love kraken they are the best exchange imo for they still offer monero unlike 95% of the exchanges out there these days!

  6. xenxra @ xenxra: i'm surprised none of the CA-US shops have a notice up about it
  7. Alkazar @ Alkazar: It is really annoying\
  8. Alkazar @ Alkazar: Technically they were forced back to work the last time they went on strike in 2024, so this is the same strike for the same reasons in 2025.
  9. Alkazar @ Alkazar: I dont know how to direct reply to people on here. But the Canada Post strike will affect any mail coming from the US. It will be held at a facility until the striek is over. Mail that is being sent from CAD to the US will just not be picked up. It all has to be private delivery services now.

  14. xenxra @ xenxra: @LW815 from my experience, CP strikes usually tend to leave the snails alone

  16. C @ Callmejonah: methadone
  17. LW815 @ LW815: @Alkazar would that effect snail mail arriving to the US from CA in any impactful way?
