My nostr accnt is linked in to #Alby. Would that be considered their custodial wallet? Heard in the RHR by nostr:nprofile1qqsywt6ypu57lxtwj2scdwxnyrl3sry9typcstje65x7rw9a2e5nq8sprpmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctvqydhwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnzd96xxmmfdecxzunt9e3k7mgpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mq9hxafw and nostr:nprofile1qqsqfjg4mth7uwp307nng3z2em3ep2pxnljczzezg8j7dhf58ha7ejgprdmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujucnfw33k76twwpshy6ewvdhk6qg4waehxw309amk7apwdehhxarj9ecxzun50yq3yamnwvaz7tmhda6zuat50phjummwv5qxfslc just now that they are phasing this out. What would you recommend I do to set up as wallet for zapping on #nowte next, if this is getting eclipsed?

Alby will be discontinued on Jan 3 2025; switch over to Coinos.io you won't regret it. I also used Alby for 2 years and loved it but Coinos is blowing my mind right now!

I don’t have mine setup yet! I was was wondering about cash app

Fountain.fm isn't half bad if you also like podcasts. You can also install the albyhub desktop app and pay to open your own self custodial lightning channel too. If you are on an open source operating system that is private and secure like many Linux and BSD based distros.

Still recommend only keeping enough satoshis on the lightning network just for zaps and spending cash. You should be keeping the majority of your satoshis off the lightning network and stored into cold storage wallets for long term safety and security. If you aren't already.

I’m digging nostr:npub1h2qfjpnxau9k7ja9qkf50043xfpfy8j5v60xsqryef64y44puwnq28w8ch as a replacement if you’re looking for a custodial wallet.

The Alby extension for using your nostr keys and everything will stay the same!

Just the custodial lightning wallet will close down, you can use other custodians or try cashu wallets

Or run your own Alby lightning mode with AlbyHub!

what is the difference between a cashu and Lightning Wallet?

Cashu wallets like cashu.me or minibits

are built on the ecash protocol-

Alby hub

Links your alby account to your own node.

Self custody LN address

Not your Node, not your rules.

ZEUS and your own node on mobile.

This is the perfect way.

I would have to be hand held through that process and still don't know I have the resources to make that happen as of rn.

I can help make it happen if its something your heart desires.

It feels amazing.

Well, I'd love to understand what that may entail (making it happen) first and I would be super grateful to have your support if that feels like the correct next step?! My main concern is I am unsettled and nomadic. So I travel with my lap top and phone. I also am on a highly limited budget at the moment so I'd need to evaluate costs too.

the biggest challenge is not having a stationary and secluded cryptocave....

I think fully operating a lightning node with all features requires this. I could be mistaken.

Others can feel free to add to this project for ideal nomadic lightning soverienty.

I was going to recommend Blixt wallet, but I had issues integrating with nostr using that one.

Zeus also does the Lightning Node in the Phone thing, works with nostr.

thats as close to mobile sovereignty as you can get from my experience unless you are carrying a laptop around thats running the blockchain 24/7 connected non stop as well.

I have often pondered this during long sleepless nights, curious to know what others think!!!!!

Nice crypto cave you got!

We will have to reconvene when I am more stationary. I am tired of being unhomed and got the message clear that I am feeling ready to put that phase of the journey to an end. Starting to orient toward opening the doors to a more grounded abode that holds me.

What about use the preset / premade wallet on primal

It’s custodial but it does what it needs to. If you want full self-custodial than yea get own node and connect with Alby hub.

Sent up a post and we can all donate to help you get a cool setup going. I’ll donate a bit of Sats.

To host your own lightning wallet ellectrum requires 200k sats.

I need 6000 Actual sats to host my own node. If you get me those I could set up our own node. Could be a good learning experience.

I am not aware of the implications of it all or what sharing a node entails especially an anon, so I am gonna pass. In the words I recently read by nostr:nprofile1qqsxu35yyt0mwjjh8pcz4zprhxegz69t4wr9t74vk6zne58wzh0waycpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qg4waehxw309ahx7um5wghx77r5wghxgetk9uq3samnwvaz7tmxd9k8getj9ehx7um5wgh8w6twv5hsj7hdd2 consider everyone a scammer or maybe he said spammer. He may have said it entirely differently but basically that's how I took it.

Tried to zap you that amount but your zaps aren't setup here. :(

Yeah, I think he's been experiencing issues. He was trying real hard to set it up q few weeks ago and kept failing.

Ill need actual sats in my bitcoin wallet. lol bc1qhpgy5985w39d73jtzlx8gpfn38pcy6tqedc5sr

Apparently the Ellectrum wallet requires 200k sats to create a lightning channel wallet

Once CREEnergy gets its Channel up and running perhaps we can use that one?

Would be nice to get drill bits in the ground and flowing our own precious black gold to benefit humanity! We can do it!
