Since Wallet of Satoshi has gone down a few times & I saw people asking, I felt it would be good to have a dedicated thread on options for a **receiving** [[LNURL]] address. Save this thread and add others in the comments if you have one not listed.

So in the past 2 weeks I’ve cycled through connecting each of these to #Nostr:

- [Alby](https://getalby.com/)

- Great LN wallet and extension, has custodial option plus can connect numerous other noncustodial to it. Can use to login to LNAUTH websites as well as with your Nostr keys to protect from copy/pasting (honestly it's a need-to-have for Nostr until everyone else integrates the Nostr sign in). Easy & cheap to withdraw

- [Wallet of Satoshi](https://www.walletofsatoshi.com/)

- Custodial, very fast adoption of Nostr and zaps. Just always seems to work and has been reliable for me for years... (until you Zap⚡️Junkies broke them). Easy to withdraw but has much higher fees on bigger payments - I think there's a set percentage.

- [Zebedee](https://zbd.gg/)

- Works great! BUT it freaking emailed me for every zap. It says I can easily change the settings but i searched through the whole menu and got 2 more emails *while* I was looking for how to turn it off and just immediately disconnected it 🤣 — if you can figure that out it seems great otherwise (but custodial). Easy & cheap to withdraw

- [BtcPayServer](https://btcpayserver.org/)

- Setup is a lot more involved & requires you to connect your own web domain, but it's incredibly valuable to have. I use BtcPay for all sorts of crap and it's insanely valuable despite a less intuitive interface when you first get into it. Non-custodial, you hold the keys.

- [Fountain App](https://fountain.fm/)

- Podcasting app, custodial Lightning. Easy and instant setup basically, LNURL is right in your profile. Only headache with them is fixed sized withdraws. Most you can do in any invoice is 200k at a time. Great way to get a fast LNURL though.

- [LN.tips](https://t.me/LightningTipBot)

- My current zap LNURL source. Run by @callebtc, it connects to the (custodial) LightningTipBot on Telegram, so it gives you all your zaps in a scrolling Telegram chat feed. Honestly I just like the interface for viewing zaps more than anything. Easy to withdraw to any non-custodial.

---------------

Wallets I've used that support *sending* to LNURL but don't seem to have support for an address of your own:

- [Phoenix Wallet](https://phoenix.acinq.co/)

- [Breez](https://breez.technology/mobile/)

- going to have a big overhaul soon, I'd keep an eye out

- [Blixt Wallet](https://blixtwallet.github.io/features)

------------

Other wallets that have LNURL support of various kinds (send/receive/both) that I have on my list to test eventually:

- [LNpay](lnpay.co)

- Looks like yoy can send and receive via LNURL – I use this for a lot of other stuff, it's a custodial and/or non-custodial wallet manager with API (kind of like an LNbits as a service to connect to your other apps). Great for webhooks, connecting to code on a website, etc. Looks like you can use own domain for LNURL (though I haven't done it yet).

- [Bottlepay](https://bottlepay.com/)

- [Lifpay](https://www.lifpay.me/en/)

- (don't know much but looks interesting)

- [Balance of Satoshis](https://github.com/alexbosworth/balanceofsatoshis)

- install it on your LND node instance like btcpay, voltage, umbrel, etc. Here it's really useful but haven't gotten time to fully explore.

- [Bitcoin Beach Wallet](https://www.bbw.sv/)

- custodial but will give user an LNURL

- [Simple Bitcoin Wallet](https://sbw.app/)

- [Clams](https://app.clams.tech/welcome)

- Looks like an LNlink sort of app for Core-Lightning. Both are about controlling your LN node *over* the Lightning network, so its direct comms using "empty" payments over other LN nodes.

- [Machankura](https://8333.mobi/)

- Blowing up in Africa from what i read, send directly to phone number or LNURL. Custodial.

I'm sure there are others but these are teh ones I have saved in an ongoing note and what I've had more hands on experience with. Hope this is helpful. 🙏

Gonna repost this in a bit. Amazing Guy 👏

#[3] two hours

Great post. Get zapped!

I hope we see NIP57 support for satdress so we can use it full self hosted.

Great thread thanks! I think I go for Alby now that wos is broken 😇

Great overview of different options. Now have a zap!

Thanks for the work Guy.

I can add that Zebedee doesn't have NIP-57 support. Also it's not possible to change the email address yet. It has high LN fees; one time it paid 250 sats for a tx.

Thanks for the update!

Phoenix doesn't work for receiving for sure?

He means receiving to an LN address I presume.

👍 yeah that’s what I meant. Can only receive on Nostr using a LN address and Phoenix doesn’t have that correct?

I couldn't find a way to setup a lightning address in the app. If you find something different let me know.

Good thread on setting up Lightning for Zaps

Serious PoW post by that Guy who has read more about Bitcoin than anybody else you know #[0]

Agree that the telegram integration is awesome. That's why I keep switching back to ln tips.

I've used my BTCPay server with my LND node for the past two months, until about two weeks ago when I switched to stacker.news for NIP-57. As you said, the setup is a bit more involved, but it's worth it to have one setup.

Great rundown! Would love to hear any feedback you have when you get around to testing #[2] – lmk if you need a testflight link btw. It's NIP-57 enabled, and a lot more updates on the way 🤙

This has been my experience/frustration for a few weeks now. I’ve tried them all, trying to land on one that is reliable. I have finally got my own BTCpay server, but I have to learn the system still. I’m sure I can master this self sovereignty lifestyle soon.

Keep up this work, it has inspired me and i look forward to your new stuff. Although I have been an IT professional for a long time, only in the past year have I been listening to podcasts and yours has been fun to learn from. 6am coffee and fountain is my new fav time of day!

BTW your 2 hour NVK talk was very engaging and fun. I was in the conversation with you even though you couldn’t hear me. My wife thinks I’m nuts talking to a podcast that can’t hear me! 😂

Haha that’s awesome. My wife used to pick on me about spending hours by myself talking to my computer. I say Stay weird! 😂

Keep going! I’m new, not an IT professional and little tech experience. This community has helped me:

-build a node

-set up my node

-open lightning channels

-set up a lightning address for direct payments to my node.

A self sovereign server feels good:)

This was an amazing resource for me.
