Happy to collaborate - or at least make sure it’s compatible.

Did you have a plan for invoice generation? Generate new invoice per 402/Content? I’d like to support ZAPs and be non-custodial ideally. I thought about supporting inbound webhook a from users local lightning nodes - basically they forward payment success messages which unlocks the content.

I have a concern around privacy - because you leak the pubkey - and ideally you’d only want to provide a pubkey if you’re paying or think you’ve paid.

I'm using hold invoices on my LND node, to proxy invoice payments to any LNURL

I at the same time get excited when I see someone using hodl invoices, for the experimentation, but also sad, because of how bad hodl invoices are for lightning 😅

Once Nostr matures a little, the Nostr devs may need to help the lightning devs for a bit. Seems like lightning is a bottleneck for lots of cool stuff.

Hard problems to solve for sure, but with devs and momentum of real world use cases that Nostr can bring to life, I can see it working.

Bad why? It's only bad if they get stuck

yeah, tying liquidity across the entire route; by their very definition they are htlcs you don't want to immediately settle; short duration hodls are not problematic, but multi-hour/day ones... 😕
