Replying to Avatar Mazin

Well 2 of those implementations were Mutiny Wallet run so the proposal has died with them it seems. They were the only wallet provider that supported it. Alby used to say they would implement it (and presumably would if it had been merged). Now it feels fully abandoned.

We have just moved on with using the flawed onboarding flow and as such virtually no services interact with NWC at all.

I don’t think it can be merged as is anymore unfortunately. I think Alby is working on some other flow now 🤷‍♂️

Aren't nutzaps a better flow? (I don't even know if it's related).

They force you to use a custodial wallet or run your own mint, I think? NWC allows for both custodial and non-custodial wallets.

Running an NWC server probably requires the same amount of work as running a NWC server if you want to plug it in your own node.

Nutzaps have the advantage of not requiring any setup from the Nostr side.

Alby could come with a built-in mint.

Most Alby Hubs are self-hosted so I don’t think it’s easy to run a mint over http. That’s what NWC fixes
