Secure/Good Rep/Lightning Hot Wallet?
Try Phoenix Wallet (my favorite), Breez, Muun.
-
Why isnt bitcoin easy like venmo or zelle? Exchanging digits shouldnrt be so complicated? Which exchange is easy for dumb dumbs like me?
Good Bitcoin wallet apps for mobile are Blockstream Green and BlueWallet. If you want wallets that can do both Bitcoin and Lightning then you can check Muun, Phoenix and Breez.

Cold storage crypto wallets?
Honestly, for my daily I just use Muun. It’s hot but self-custodial. Super good lightning integration. https://muun.com Solid company.

PSA: If you're buying bitcoin for the first time, do not leave it on an exchange. Please take self custody
Your cold wallet is your savings account. You can top up a hot wallet/lightning spending wallet (your checking account) as and when you need. Recommended lightning wallets, Alby, Breez, Phoenix, Zeus and Muun wallet.

Daily Discussion, November 13, 2022
I think your definition of open source is not the same as the dictionary definition. Atomic and Guarda are not open source at all and they shill shitcoins as well as staking. I suggest either Blue Wallet or Muun Wallet which are wallets only.

Generating and Working With ScriptPubKeys in Bitcoin Transactions
As mentioned previously, ScriptPubKeys are scripts that embody the locking conditions of bitcoins in a Bitcoin transaction. They are a crucial element of a Bitcoin transaction that specifies the requirements that must be met before an unspent transaction output (UTXO) is used. The ScriptPubKey, combined with the Amount, creates an output of a Bitcoin transaction. Like every other script, ScriptPubKeys are made up of operators and data. During the encoding of a transaction, both data and the operands are represented in hexadecimal format. You can find the hex representation for all operands used in Bitcoin Scripts here.

Bitcoin Core 26.0
Here are the release notes: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/26.x/doc/release-not...
It's blatantly false that "Bitcoin Core was purchased by Blockstream".
It's absolutely not the case. It's more like a conspiracy theory that keeps getting pushed into Bitcoin-related threads at Hacker news (maybe to tilt future analysis?)
If we take a look at the past month of commits from https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pulse/monthly, the top ten authors are:
- MarcoFalke (ChainCode)

ZeroMQ – Relicense from LGPL3 and exceptions to MPL 2.0
Fun ZeroMQ fact: bitcoind has used zeromq since 2015. This is used by client software including lightning node daemons to get notification of incoming transactions and blocks in a highly reliable and rapid way.
