Exactly this. Blockstream Jade hardware wallet used with Sparrow wallet on a laptop with linux, to make transactions. Then Bluewallet for a watch-only wallet on your phone device.

Well done, never mind that guy, he clearly has an axe to grind and doesn't seem to grasp very much other than his out of touch talking points: did you look into using BTCPAY [0] server?
Things are still not as easy as they should, but have seriously advanced in the last few years.

Which plugin is the best to accept crypto payments?
Game changer for us is BTCPay Server since a big point of crypto is removing banks/middlemen. Rock solid and bitcoin goes directly to our wallet that we control the private keys for. No Coinbase. No Bitpay. Just actual bitcoin. Highly recommended

For some larger operations https://btcpayserver.org/ would be somewhat better. Thank you for the help!
