heads up that if you use the new WoS anyone can lookup your balance and transaction history. all they need is one of your bolt11 invoices. @Carman made a tool that you can use to extract a spark address from an invoice. i just tested it with one of my invoices and the tool gave me a sparkscan link that displays my current balance and transaction history 😳.

Faaaaark!! Ok thank you heaps for the heads up man. I love their custodial wallet myself but thought this was a step in the right direction. Always 2 steps forward, 3 steps back some of these days! Hey @Wallet of Satoshi incoming hotfix? 🙏😁

>i prefer their custodial wallet over this it always fascinates me how if given the choice between having privacy and owning your own money, the bitcoin maxi ALWAYS chooses privacy and NEVER says "what the hell, why am I being made to trade one of these off?!?" View quoted note →

We just don’t include Spark information inside the lightning invoice. Unfortunately, there are still other ways to find that information outside of our control.

It's an option to turn off when creating an invoice with spark. For whatever reason WoS chose to keep it on
