Nostr Web Client

Can someone please help me with setting up a wallet for #nostr.

I want to do it in a way that doesn't require me to reveal a lot of personal information about myself.

Any input would be welcome.

Coinos is a great custodial wallet (they hold the keys), great way to get started

Also suggest using an "nsec bunker" extension to login. For firefox and chrome

Once signed in to coinos, go to hand icon (top right) to get your lightning address. You can add that in the settings for your nostr client. Lmk when you get setup I'll send you a test zap. Because coinos is custodial, don't keep significant funds there, you should withdraw occasionally to reduce risk in case coinos disappears one day.

Hello there. I think I did it. Can you test zap me so I can check please.

Thank you.

Your zap icon is greyed out for me. Did you copy the lightning address from coinos into whatever nostr client you're using?

Yes I did.

I'm not into Lightning but just thought I'd tell you your zap icon isn't greyed out anymore

Just zapped ya, looks like it's working!

Your lightning address should look something like makeasnek@coinos.io, except with your name. You should be able to add that into whatever app you are browsing nostr with.

OK it's done. Please try it now.
