Discussion
The Primal starter pack of surfer bros 😂
Primal is literally worse than X
Why?
Primal’s bitcoin wallet is powered by strike.
Strike is a KYC wallet.
Congratulations you linked your identity and lightning wallet to your npub
At least with X your identity is separate from your lightning wallet.
What is your best case wallet setup to link with Nostr?
Obviously running your own lightning node is the best option but more technical.
For a quick onboarding experience and ease of use I would recommend nostr:npub1h2qfjpnxau9k7ja9qkf50043xfpfy8j5v60xsqryef64y44puwnq28w8ch with NWC
You don't have to use its strike wallet. I use alby hub just fine, fwiw
They should not force you to use albu or strike
Let us copy the dam invoice at least
Do they force anything? I wasn't forced to do anything. I don't really understand how clients generate lightning invoices so I'm certainly out of my depth at this point in the convo
you can use your own node also tho
nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg is this possible on iOS yet?! NWC works on Android
Some say it’s the coinbase of nostr 😲
Important to know. Wasn’t aware up to now
You can use primal with a different wallet. Honestly I think primal and strike are probably not doing enough kyc to be compliant, but I’m not a lawyer. I suspect they’ll start doing stronger kyc at some point.
Don't you think an exchange is different from lightning wallets for the free and open Internet?
You can use a third party wallet but Primal is leading a lot of non technical users to the slaughterhouse with their social wallet.
Strike gets a lot of information from plaid when the user is linking their bank account or debit card.
All you need to be KYC compliant :
Name
Address
DOB
SSN
DL or ID
Phone / Email
Pretty sure strike gets all that.
They may not have the tightest AML but that’s a different animal.
Wait, you're missing something here. X knows your identity (or else you're just pissing into oblivion there)... Primal doesn't KYC though as far as I recall.
Pretty sure X partnered with Strike too when nostr:nprofile1qqsgydql3q4ka27d9wnlrmus4tvkrnc8ftc4h8h5fgyln54gl0a7dgsprpmhxue69uhhqun9d45h2mfwwpexjmtpdshxuet5qy28wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hszrthwden5te0dehhxtnvdakqc267ea was there...could be wrong though
To de-radicalize the comment: Primal might link your identity to your lightning wallet because it uses Strike, yet to bypass this “light” KYC you can config a different lightning address in the app. Expect stronger KYC once more people outside the Bitcoin tribe knows about and uses Nostr more.
You can run and fund your own lightning wallet… I mean. This isn’t a problem.
She throws me off sometimes - privacy warrior but uses primal?? Okeee
