Do i need a minibits wallet or similar to use npub.cash?
I've done it by:
- app switching for zap sending
- NWC from nostr:nprofile1qqstxwlea9ah3u6kjjszu6a7lrnhqkfh8eptp2z6v0e9558tlkkl2rgpzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcpremhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet59u4kl3vp for send/receive
- receiving to nostr:nprofile1qqst4qyeqenw7zm0fwjsty68h6cnys5jre2xd8ngqpjv5a2j26s78fsppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp049c5ke, Minibits, or npub.cash while sending from my nostr:nprofile1qqs9df4h2deu3aae83fmet5xmrlm4w5l9gdnsy3q2n7dklem7ezmwfcpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq5xamn8ghj7dnvv45xs7tywde8g6rpvakkjuekw46nvar4vdhxgan6wumkxatzwpckk6rk0puhjdm2da5k7ce5x4kkkumjx3jkzepwdahxjmmwqyt8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnwdaehgu3wd9hxvmckqw0xz NWC using my own node
Everybody seems to really like nostr:nprofile1qqsyv47lazt9h6ycp2fsw270khje5egjgsrdkrupjg27u796g7f5k0spzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqgjwaehxw309ac82unsd3jhqct89ejhxqgnwaehxw309aex2mrp09skymr99ehhyecusqvd6 Hub for this, also, but I haven't tried it yet. All these seem to work. Just have to pick your favorite flavor.

It will let you receive zaps, but you'll still need to send from somewhere else, unless something has changed recently. Minibits has a similar function for receiving because you get an address to put in your profile. Mine is set up this way. It also supports NWC, so it's kind of a 1 stop shop. It's all custodial ecash, though. Make sure you're okay with that. Otherwise look at Start9 or Alby Hub.
Thanks for the reply.
So i was playing a little bit with minibits, using nwc. It seems to be delayed in showing transactions. I came back later and they showed up.
I believe you have to open the app to fully receive the transaction. Could be wrong. I don't know what the time limit is, if any. I haven't lost anything yet. On sending, sometimes Amethyst doesn't show the zap completing, but it's there on refresh. Clearing cache usually makes weirdness like that go away for me. Basically, I think it's all okay and normal, though.
Thank you, i might go with that setup, just for simplicity. You've been very helpful.😊
No problem, thanks for the zap! I have the node and all that, but I do like the simple zap setup. I like limiting the funds available to NWC, also. That's another that Alby Hub might solve. I need to fire that up just to have some experience with it.
