They handle everything and you get extra privacy because you are not using your onchain UXTOs.

what are the main tradeoffs between using the 0conf channels or your own prepurchased channels?
ok dude this is the bullshit that made me give up last time
I got inbound liquidity on Zeus
i have some sats with Phoenix
why can I NOT send to my Zeus wallet but have no problems sending anywhere else?
its just Phoenix to Zeus on the same phone, generating the invoice in Zeus and copying it over.
wtf?

I don't know, I've never used Phoenix.
Try increasing the fee.
ok I tried to send it 15 times
changing various things
the thing that FINALLY worked was switching on routing hints
so maybe I configured something incorrectly
but shouldn't i be able to get paid to an unannounced channel without undue grief?
Routing Hints will be enabled by default on the next Zeus Wallet update v0.9.5 if node has only unannounced channels.
yeah I just saw the PR
so wheres this awesome privacy come in?
dont routing hints announce my node to everyone i share an invoice with?
Why didn’t you just open a 0conf with their lsp?
because i am a difficult person and have to learn everything the hard way
Fair e nuff
Don’t forget to redeem your zaps from the zap locker every 24 hours or less
thanks for the reminder.
that part seems like its working fine.
You’re welcome.
👍
There's an option in the settings to leave the node running 24/7, if you do that you can auto-redeem the zaps, but will drain your battery a lot so i don't really recommend it.
I wanted to try that, but needed to pay a lighting invoice. The exchange services I found need a lightning address, not an invoice. Are there any services to pay ln invoice with xmr?
I put the invoice from Zeus into the lightning decoder linked intheis thread, it said "Not a proper lightning payment request"
It has this format:
bitcoin:BC1...?lightning=LNBC1...&amount=0.001
Will sending to either of those addresses pay the invoice?
I wasn't will to experiment with so many sats
You can probably use https://www.trocador.app/en/ if you want to pay with xmr… I have no idea what a lighting decoder is or what it does.
It is this
What is it even for?
What needs to be decoded?
When you create an invoice, you can inspect it here: https://lightningdecoder.com
very cool thanks
