It didn't send them.
Can you check if your wallet is actually sending the payments? I did not receive your zap from this.
Discussion
Then you need to see why not.
I'm trying. FYI, I noticed something else just now. I tried to zap a few random people using their lightning address on their profile, and it just pauses for a few seconds and then collapses after I hit the Send Sats button🤷.
I fixed it. It's a client issue. One with Amethyst, perhaps. I zapped using Coracle and it worked just fine! Appreciate your time, though. And thanks for telling me more about relays! I'm still trying to fully wrap my head around how different types are used.
So, what fixed it?
My using of a different client to zap. Why it wasn't working through amethyst, idk🤷. Derek Ross did mention in his comment about using NWC instead of choosing from a list of wallets but... I don't see how that would affect someone's ability to zap.
ok, so it didn't fix.
Are you using the same wallet for both Amethyst and Coracle?
Is the wallet opening the invoice to pay correctly?
Does the wallet show any error message when trying to pay on their screen?
I mean, it fixed my issue of not being able to zap.
Yes.
Yes.
No.
Wait, how can the wallet open the invoice and now show any results? Does it say that it was paid correctly? It must say something, right? It's either a success or a failure. Or does the invoice just disappear?
hum.. I don't know what I am looking at. Was any of these payments through Amethyst? Which wallet is this?
They are the last two zaps that I've sent. No, they were done through coracle. Also, this is my Strike wallet, I've been using it to zap for the past few months. But sending through strike wasn't an issue until today for some reason. Kind of anomalous lol.
And when you hit the zap button on Amethyst, does it open Strike or another app?
Strike does tell you when the payment fails or succeeds with a big green check mark on the screen. Does that happen?
Nope. Not today, at least.
Yep. These went through seamlessly.
> Nope
So, which app is Amethyst opening? Or it doesn't open anything?
It doesn't open anything
Ohh, ok, so you are using the Nostr Wallet Connect, then.
Do you want Amethyst to open Strike or to keep paying in the background?
Strike does not accept Nostr Wallet Connect, so the current payment setup is going to another app.
You can click and hold the zap button and clear the 3 fields at the end of the screen to make Amethyst open wallet apps.
That worked. Thank you! But, it still doesn't explain why wallet options weren't loading earlier today or how I've been sending zaps using strike with my NWC info filled out.
