HELP!

Gooood Mooorning Nostr!

I need help. I am an Alby wallet user. The wallet is of course connected to Nostr to send and receive zaps. Now Alby tells me that I need to setup my own LN node, but I'm such a small fish that it is not feasable (and quite complicated, I'm not really technical...). I'd like to continue sending and receiving zaps even with a custodial LN wallett. I know it is not the best, but we are talking like a few thousend sats...

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Build or buy an Umbrel. Use AlbyHuby a/phoenixd. Lightning node functionality without lightning node forced close losses.

Thanks bit ad i said, those are all solutions I cannot pursue, mostly ad I still very low on volumes...

There is a relay-handled eCash solution in development by nostr:nprofile1qqs04xzt6ldm9qhs0ctw0t58kf4z57umjzmjg6jywu0seadwtqqc75sprfmhxue69uhhq7tjv9kkjepwve5kzar2v9nzucm0d5hsz9mhwden5te0wfjkccte9ec8y6tdv9kzumn9wshszynhwden5te0wp6hyurvv4cxzeewv4esdp32r9. It is very likely that a solution will be coming for you to send and receive zaps using ecash mints which implement this approach. Until then you could try https://npub.cash to receive zaps.

I'm not sure, but I thought Primal had its own wallet in the app?

Another option is if you know other alby users (family/friends) you can share the costs of the node and share the lightning channel.

I've also heard wallet of satoshi works, but haven't tried myself

Got my Blink wallet working. It will do for now, until I have time to decide on my own node. Thnks for the feedback!
