Looking for some reasonable ways to "gift" small amounts of Bitcoin to people, for example, by tipping delivery drivers. I could make a paper/cold wallet and give the the key/phrase, but this doesn't work well for amounts < $5 due to tx fees they'd incur just trying to use it. I'd like to give them funds on lightning, but the instructions for claiming those funds must be able to fit on say half a sheet of paper. This must be non-custodial. Ideas? #asknostr #bitcoin #lightning

Thanks for the link! Looks cool but is custodial, would ideally like a non-custodial solution
The cool thing about tipcards is you can set an expiry date and periodically sweep back any unclaimed tips. Thus no âlostâ Bitcoin.
It puts the onus on the tip receiver to do some work. Aka, set up a wallet and work out how to claim the lightning tip.
If somebody wants to claim a tip, do they need to setup a wallet with inbound liquidity?
I was thinking of just making a temporary zeus wallet and then putting the seed phrase for that wallet on the tip card I leave. But, of course, doing this manually for every time would be rather time consuming.
Likely the easiest way to claim a tip is to download a custodial lightning wallet such as Wallet of Satoshi.
Hadn't heard about topics, but Lightsats.com does something similar, and walks them through getting a wallet set up to receive.
