What is Bitcoin & Satoshi?

Is it non-custodial?

On-chain or Lightning?
Both. You can use Bitcoin on-chain and over the Lightning Network.
How do I back up and restore?
The recovery phrase is created on your device. Write it down and keep it offline. To restore, enter that phrase on a device you control. Each wallet has its own phrase.
What are the fees?

How is my privacy handled?
