Replying to Avatar BTC Sessions

Just had an exciting moment that my normie friends will never appreciate.

I bought a couple beers.

...But it was more than that. I bought a couple beers with Bitcoin.

...But it was more than that. I bought a couple beers in Lugano Switzerland with lightning, through Zeus wallet with my own lightning channel, connected to Alby Hub, running on my Start9 node, on my shelf in my office back home in Canada.

So yes, I just bought a couple beers. But it was fucking exciting.

You stole the spirit of the post I was going to make when I did this for the first time in Lugano 😆

Been using Alby Go in the same way and it’s so fucking dope

Wait how did you connect Zeus though? Does it accept NWC now?

Zeus does it via lnd connect, which there's an option for on the web interface.

Yeah my LND connect has been giving me tons of trouble. Been super disappointed. nostr:npub1wnlu28xrq9gv77dkevck6ws4euej4v568rlvn66gf2c428tdrptqq3n3wr has said it works fantastic for him. I just get constant disconnects, and the past 3 weeks it’s almost nothing but random RPC errors for seemingly no reason.

What version of everything? Any shitty service that's restarting all the time on your server?

I’ll investigate again when I get back, sessions was saying he was getting the same thing until Albyhub, but it’s connecting with the same tool. Seems like it’s likely something weird with whatever service that’s running it rather than LND connect specifically.
