Zaps just aren't so fun when you realize the options. My first wallet stopped supporting zaps so I had to make a quick decision. Signed up for alby because it said it was free. Haven't been able to zap since. I now found out you need 50 000 sats just to set up the wallet and the sats are now locked in their account. Even if I pay the fee, they want 20 000 sats/month after that. So unless you're getting mad zaps, you can't even access them. Seems so lame. Is there no free alternative? #asknostr

I host Alby on my start9 server and it’s totally flawless. It just works.
You do have to fund the channel with a certain number of sats, but it’s not towards fees, afaik. I’m kinda ignorant to how liquidity works on lightning.
Wallet of Satoshi, Phoenix Wallet there are several. 👍
i use blitz wallet
Just go custodial & only have what you can afford to lose
I tried Alby but could never get it to work right. Also lost a lot of sats. I funded the wallet, didn’t use it for awhile, and then when I tried to use it they had me fund the wallet again. I never got to use any of it. Maybe the issue was on my end. I don’t know.
It's a load of shit. I give up
Minibits works for me. I don't think the wallet balance displays quite right, but it works.
Hopefully we'll see more wallets use NWC in the future.
