Nostr Web Client

Americans, now that lnurl is getting some adoption, if you host your own lnurl server make sure you're blocking Iranian, Cuban, North Korean, Russian, and Syrian IP addresses so that you don't wittingly accept a payment from users in those countries! Not worth jail time or fines.

Just got around to setting it up on mine, luckily nginx makes it easy.

Maybe next time folks will use private protocols, but hey, I don’t get to decide what people use.

If only there existed a lightning native way to post a static, reusable address where the destination route can be blinded. 🤔

It's too bad such a thing doesn't exist for most LN users.

Are blinded paths possible with BOLT11?

Could it be added as a stand-alone feature? Or would it depend on other things that only come with BOLT12?

Saw it mentioned in the LND repo, but as a sub-task of adding full BOLT12.

It could be added to BOLT11, yes, but BOLT11 describes single-use invoices, lnurl solves the multi-use problem (by breaking privacy). The only solution to that is BOLT12.

Why is there such a lack of support/push for BOLT12?

How far is BOLT12? Not done yet, right?

Shipping in CLN+eclair now, Phoenix soon, LDK Very Soon

It's been usable as a draft experiment with CLN for years. Soon interoperable implementations and the finalized standard happen. If you used the previous BOLT12 draft you'd only need to update your static address after the new standard. Hence bolt12.org warned don't get the QR tattoo.
