Whatās that
How do you go to these addresses btw, theyāre never a link
It's a note-ID of my answer to one of your earlier Notes.
Most clients make a link out of these...
I'm using Amethyst on Android right now, but on desktop I use snort.social or primal.net (preferred).
For Primal you must install the browser extension getalby.com because it will savely store your secret private key, so you don't have to manually enter it into web clients.
getalby.com also offers you a Lightning wallet which provides you with a Lightning address, that you can enter into your profile to receive small Bitcoin transactions, called zaps, that nostr users send each other via the ā” symbols to express how valuable the note is to them. See it as an improved version of the like button...
Here's a (German) video which explains the steps with Primal and Alby.
They definitely are a thing. Depending on your client you can follow some to start building your feed
Ty! First big thing Iāve missed
Np. Also, set yourlsef up a LN address so you can start sending and receiving #zaps
Yes Iām excited to try that but it was the next hard challenge for me to tackle. Which wallet is best? And how do you get your bitcoin to that wallet? Is there a resource that gets me through that? Have not found it yet.
I mean, to sends zaps, what is the easiest way to transfer them and from where outside of lightning?
There are exchanges, like Kraken.com , which let you a) buy bitcoin for your countries currency and b) withdraw your Bitcoin over the Lightning network. You can send them directly to your Alby wallet if you want to.
I'd personally recommended to start by setting up a custodial wallet like WoS or Alby. Once you have that you can start receiving and recirculating sats. That should buy you some time while you figure out how to move funds from on-chain to the LN.
You can also use some p2p exchanges like robosats to buy sats directly into the LN. But I'd recommended to become familiar with the LN first
The easiest/mostconvenients/more widespread are Alby and Wallet of Satoshi. But there's plenty around.
Yes, hashtags are very important since we donāt have any algorithms here to suggest people or content.
