- embedded node on your phone

- no channel management necessary

- self custody as expected

This is hugeeee!!

Greenlight?

Turning out to be a big day for lightning!

Holy shit.

wow!

Does it mean Zeus will have their own node with private channels?

😳😳

Sick

Will there be a dispatch rip?

Great new features,

Ldk?

Great new features,

Is that still a remote node running in their infra or is it a pruned node on the phone?

Amazing! 🔥🔥

So are you doing like breez. Acting as an LSP to provide channels and incoming liquidity?

How much do they charge for sending?

Sweet mother of fuck 🤯⚡️⚡️⚡️

No node. No channel management? How does it work? Voltage LSP?

👀👀

Can we start dumbing down the announcements a little more for plebs. Devs can’t keep up but understand new things, us mere plebs have zero chance to keep up and understand.

So is this making it like Mutiny and also I do not understand things there too.

the Phoenix / breez model?

Olympus?

this announcement is 🔥

💯

How awesome is that.

No channel management, because of splicing?

Or how does it work?

...bullish 🫡

LSPs?

shit.. I though my other reply was on twitter

What the.. Nodes require to always be on, how does that work on a phone?

LFG tho nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5🚀

LSP does the heavy lifting when you’re offline

Congrats!!

Damnnnnnn ⚡️😎

I wish they would finally fix the horrible error messages that tells you nothing at all.

👀

Is next year going to be another lightning event in july? I can't keep missing these things, need to do better planning.

Game changer

Is this in the current release???😳

Is it already?

What kind of sorcery is this?

Wow :o

seriously?

crazy week !

Game changer, especially for mobile-only users! 🙌

Very cool

When I start @ZEUS it still just give me the option to connect to my own node / scan the node configuration.

So which version are we talking about? Doesn’t see this feature by now.

v0.8

It’s a closed alpha for now. Will open it up soon

Ah ok. Using your app via TestFlight. Thought I missed something 😂

WANT IN! 😂

Very good news. Zeus is a great wallet. Probably the biggest barrier to it's ubiquitous success is having to run a node.

Can't express how huge this is

nostr:note1zjzmg39ltv4j4tvcx5hez4fyph4ad4djznp55kt6mjef6w68fegqgs0q7v

Bitcoiner announcements build on proof of work, a far cry from shitcoiner announcement of the announcement loop.

Well done Team Zeus.

Love to see it

God help the rookies managing their channel liquidity, lol.

Sorry guys, what are the main advantages of this new functions ? I do have a Phoenix wallet, but what will be the use case for this update, not to have a connected node ? Sorry, Just trying to understand ! 🙏🏻

essentially same usecase as phoenix now I assume, but maybe someone who knows more can do a phoenix vs zeus comparison

might have to switch now haha🤭🔥

does this post / note / tweet really has only 3 ‘likes’ / surfer sign?? or is it nostr that does not count them all for me?

I see 241 ❤️ on Amethyst

thank you for the reaction. somehow the ‘likes’ are not really ‘live’.

Bullish! But not sure about the embedded node approach tho... from using Breez/Blixt etc. it puts a lot of load on the phone

Would be interesting to see a Breez SDK integration land here as well

I also was concerned about load issues on my 3 years old phone with Breez and went for Phoenix instead.

Super good enough for me.

So they went the same route as Phoenix. I think that's the way to go for LN self-custody.

Sweet! I knew my nostr:npub10pensatlcfwktnvjjw2dtem38n6rvw8g6fv73h84cuacxn4c28eqyfn34f donations were helping with something good.

When CD107 with Evan, Team Phonix and the Mubnity boys

Any more details on the announcement?

Splicing?

Very interesting.

Something like mutiny? I suppose.

Are you still relying on an lsp for channel management. Is Zeus the channel management (or voltage)?

We’re launching our own LSP Olympus but you’ll have the ability to swap between a few

I just tried this and I’m not sure I got it to work. Where is the option to “create a new node?”

I don't think it's available yet. At least I haven't seen the option on Android.

Not out yet

v0.8. It’s in closed alpha for now but things are moving quickly

so this will be available in the next testflight version? 🤗

v0.7.7 first

Great!

This is truly incredible stuff! 😲

Just updated Zeus app and not seeing this feature. Not released yet?

me too, didn't see it either

ah, I updated to 0.7.7 it seems

Aiming for a App Store release in December

This is awesome news!

Will the users be able to "switch" to their own node later on? Once they get more comfortable with it?

#asknostr

Hopefully the new version hits F-Droid soon. I am excited to see Lightning get easier to use and nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5 leading the way.
