Looking for a lightning wallet for nostr zaps. Any recommendations for an #opensource option? Not running my node yet but planning to soon. #Bitcoin

I went down this rabbit hole recently. Zeus Pay on test flight is a way to get a self custodial embedded node that you can send and receive zaps with where you hold keys. It is buggy and expensive to set up a channel but it does work, though sending zaps with ZP was so slow I also opened a channel with Phoenix embedded node to send from. It’s expensive (by %) but works very well.

Those are the options I know about from experience. Both worth pursuing though opening a channel right now on either will be very expensive due to the higher fee environment. If you wait until fees cool off it won’t be bad with either ZP or Phoenix.

Check @Phoenix and when you set up your own node go straight to nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5

Just downloaded Zeus a few days ago and getting all the other pieces together. Thanks for the input on this too, it seems I’m on the right track.

Yeah, you are going into the perfect way! If you need some help just ask me.
