hrmmmm the strike angle is interesting. the only issue I have with strike is that it creates a "paper trail". nothing against strike and I'll probably use this capability going forward but I want it to go to my node not a third party
You can do this with Strike
Here's my referral https://invite.strike.me/BVYH9F
If someone pays you on chain or LN strike doesn't care but you can do a hybrid QR code or you can do a LN or on chain.
The best thing I like about Strike is that you can send to your own LN node for cheap or on chain for free if it's above 70,000 sats. You just don't need to be in a hurry so it is good if you get a bunch of small payments and then you make one UTXO in cold storage or you can send to your LN to give liquidity into it.

I understand. It is, however, me just send me communications. Freedom of speech. I'm tired of being afraid. It's exhausting. I care about things and I try to protect myself but I also like using good tools. My personal lightning node is a mess. Funds trapped, UTXOs that haven't confirmed. I've got cold storage and lightning hot wallets.
I'm probably not a good example but I share with people my experience, anyway. The fool is probably the best Tarot card to describe me.
Zeus does this too! I totally forgot about this and I wanted to respond. Zeus connected to your own Lightning node and does a hybrid, on chain or LN invoice.
but is the QR code reusable?
can I put it on marketing materials?
No. Good question. Why not go to Stacker News and ask this question?

You can write about your podcast episodes and also stack Sats. I've stacked more than my Fold card in the three months. I think your wife might get into it too. I put No Agenda stuff there.
yeah I used to, but I keep forgetting. I guess stacker news has way more users than a year ago
I think I started a year ago but I got rid of LinkedIn and Twitter already Facebook, too and I found that I was expending energy for nothing. I wrote long posts. One day in August I wrote about not voting and it blew up!
I got busy and I stacked more sats than with my Fold card in 3 months!
Hell, since 1998 I've had websites that I've spent thousands on in services and I've had to move. I even did paper zines in the 80s and 90s. With Stacker I've done better than all combined!
Anyway, check it out, again. It ain't pretty but it's attracting people who write well and the means of reward gets great content to the top. You also are rewarded for zaps you give to others who post new and also giving feedback to others.
And, you can argue with some of just not give anything at all to spam. Everyone pays to post.
There are territory ownerships too and cross posting to NOSTR is in the works.
Plus plugging your podcast would be good as everyone always is looking for something new to listen to.
Best part is that I'm not buying Bitcoin anymore because my Fiat job is barely making what I need to survive so earning and stacking just makes me feel better and if course sending to others who do good work is nice, too.
