# On-chain Funds

Please keep in mind that there can be two different on-chain wallets on the RaspiBlitz.
Please keep in mind that there can be two different on-chain wallets on the RaspiBlitz:

## Lightning Wallet (default)

The default is the on-chain lightning wallet - thats the wallet where you normally send your funds before opening a channel & where your funds return to when you close a channel. With the initial word seed you get during RaspiBlitz setup you can get access again to this on-chain wallet. Keep the seed words secure in a off-line location.

## Bitcoin Core Wallet (deactivated by default)

Beside lightning you have a bitcoin core installed. Normally bitcoin core acts just as a blockchain informational service to the lightning wallet and its internal seperate on-chain wallet is deactivated.

Some apps (like Fully Noded or JoinMarket) activate the bitcoin core wallet and use it for their own needs. This on-chain balance will not be reflected in the rest of the RaspiBlitz software and is NOT backuped by the seed words from the RaspiBlitz setup. If you make use of the bitcoin core wallet please take care of these funds.

# Off-chain Funds (Lightning Channels)

Please note that there is no perfect backup concept for the funds in your lightning channels yet. We recommend strongly to use the `Static Channel Backup` provided by LND and consider off-loctaion backup of that file to have the best chances to recover Lightning funds in a case desaster recovery.
