Why connect Sparrow to Bitcoin Core?
1. Privacy. When you connect to a 3rd parties node, they have access to all your addresses and transaction history. Connecting to your own node fixes this.
2. Don't trust, verify. Connect Sparrow Wallet to your own node so that you do not have to trust anyone else's node to tell you the truth.
