Nostr Web Client

You opened a channel with them right?

It was their policy that the people who had opened a channel in the past got their custom address. They later changed their policy when they introduced Zeus+. The information was available. I don’t work for Zeus and I know 🤷🏾‍♂️

I still have multiple channels open with them and I’ll probably still use them and keep them ….

I’ll tell you specifically what happened to me

I had a custom lightning address with zeusnuts. A custom handle that I’ve been using for a long time

The past few days people have been trying to zap me and it wasn’t working

So I missed out on a lot of zaps

Because they changed my shit without me even knowing about it

To a random address

I then tried to change it back to my original address… but then realized I would have to pay 80k to do it….

So I set up a custom address on Minibits for 500 sats that’s pretty reasonable

80k get the fuck out

I agree with you. If you just use Zeus+ for the custom address then 80K is too much. That’s why I said earlier that maybe it’s not the right service for you. I feel like the 20% on purchasing liquidity is a solid deal if you use it. And access to new features

Just use nostrplebs.com in that case

Thats a very good point. Reroute any address you use to your custom nostrplebs address that you can use as your ln address. And nostrplebs is only 12.5K sats one time. You can keep using your zeusnuts not custom address and route it to nostrplebs. Problem solved

I forgot you could do that lol

node 6mo ago

I feel like I should set that up too 🤣

node 6mo ago

I set mine up in nostrplebs and also in my profile. It works 🫡

kidwarp 6mo ago

Nice

node 6mo ago

No need to worry about custom addresses anymore. It’s a nice to have but never a dealbreaker

Greeny 6mo ago

For you is not a deal breaker

For me it is

I like having my lightning address as simplynostr

semisol 6mo ago

you can set up simplynostr@nostr.fan :)

Greeny 6mo ago

Nice ,yea I already got it via Minibits

💟

node 6mo ago

With nostrplebs you would have 'simplynostr@nostrplebs.com'

node 6mo ago

And then whichever lightning provider you use you could point it to that address

node 6mo ago

Look at my profile. I set it up. The address is node@nostrplebs.com and it sends the zaps right now to node@walletofsatoshi.com but it could be to any other address of my choice. I would just have to change it in my nostrplebs account

Greeny 6mo ago

That’s cool

node 6mo ago

Like that if I want to use a new service that doesn’t give me a custom address, it doesn’t matter because everything goes through my node@nostrplebs

Thanks for the info 💟
