Guessing the invite code is 21,420,069,000,000,000,000,000 easier than guessing #bitcoin private key!

UPDATE:

We've decided to make our hive a little bit more exclusive πŸ’ŽπŸ

Alby Extension remains open and free to everyone.

Interesting move!

If this is because your infra can't scale fast enough to support the new users coming in: Congrats! Thats an awesome achievement and a great problem to have.

If this is because you are afraid of losing people's funds: We hear you. Thanks for letting us know and force the issue before it happens.

If this is to prepare for a business model where alby is a paid Wallet, this is a great way to go.

If this is just a marketing play to create a false sense of exclusivity, it's not going to work.

You are not good enough to get into our special club. How fiat of you πŸ˜†

I am confused, is this only applicable for new users who wants to join?

Private keys are average 2²⁡⁡ guesses. It would fill the whole mobile nostr app screen to show part of it.

oh wow I got really lucky. I just recently created an account after onboarding to nostr and I learned a whole ton about lightning. I just implemented Bitcoin Connect to my app but that might not be feasible anymore, but no problem. I think this is a sign to get more involved in open source instead of my own work

Did I just miss out on getting in? What are us poor antisocial people supposed to do now πŸ₯²

Great. If it's Free. More people will sign up
