Go to getalby.com and login. Set one in your account if you haven't already.
Login with your extension
I already have an account via Chrome browser extension.
I don't see a set a numbers. Maybe I see npub1 or nprivate numbers. Thats not it, right?
how do I get this like yours?
After uou get the ln address you paste it into your clients settings.
In the Lightning address field 😌
the tip jar showed up after I pasted https://getalby.com/p/dowstudios. I would thought it would be a set of bitcoin numbers. So that would mean the tipper will have to use the alby extension to tip, right? I would think it would be "wallet to wallet" transfer.
Nope thta your alby personalized url.
Your ln address is dowstudios@getalby.com
Enter that and you're set.
ok, thanks, I did that.
so Alby is my bitcoin wallet, right? I know I got two sets of numbers but they begin with npub1 and nsec1. Is that how a bitcoin addresses begin? Like 0x for Etherium.
npub is your nostr public key
nsec is your nostr private key
Never share your nsec. That should be kept private.
I just zapped you, you should see the sats your alby wallet.
I made a test at bitaddress.org and got 1BV6pdZhwuWxqykfiThaKnF6PjkoutmcWz
How come the "1B" don't match my "npub"?
Can I use npub at the exchange market?
Your address is: dowstudios@getalby.com
Now you can turn that into a mobile wallet you can use to #zap others.⚡️
Download ZeusLN or BlueWallet and follow the instructions on the Alby settings page to find the code to link it to your wallet app.
thanks. Got my zap icon linker. I'm still struggling to understand the wallets and address. I received my first zap and explored it in my Alby Chrome extension app. The Alby transaction window seems only for outgoing events.
Looking/peeking into https://pro.kollider.xyz/ not expecting to find a "npub1" crypto in it due to the lack of understanding wallets/addresses. I was very surprised that Kollider is restricted in America!!! I guess it is true that USA has become a third rate country. Has our status turned to "junk"?
A lot to unpack there. Are you on Telegram? The #Nodestrich group can help teach you about Lightning wallets.
