Yeah I had to disconnect it. Wouldn’t load. But I’m confused on the coinos wallet. How does it work and how do I send sats to myself

If you’re using Damus you simply set up a coinos wallet in the app. It then creates a coinos wallet address (will be an alphanumericstring@coinos.io. Damus will then add this to your profile to receive zaps and you will be able send zaps from the wallet. To load it with sats you can use another wallet to send sats to your coinos address.

Thanks. I just don’t see a way to send or receive sats directly from the wallet UI. Just shows transactions. Can’t even copy my wallet address to send from another wallet.

Yeah we still need to add that. In the meantime you can just use a client to zap your profile or send zaps to another profile

About to try that from Primal but if my npub is connected to two different wallets (primal and coinos) which wallet gets the sats?

Its based on whatever lnurl is in your profile

When you connect the coinos wallet this automatically gets updated on your profile

But I have two different lnurl in 2 diff clients. There’s something I’m not grokking

I do this. Primal always sends from its built in wallet. Just make sure your bitcoin lightning address is the coinos one in your profile (this is shared across clients). You can see my profile in Primal below (if I use primal to zap myself the sats will leave my primal wallet and be deposited at my coinos address). You can actually put any wallet address here (they’re called LNURL addresses). Primal gave you one too when you signed up for Primal (username@primal.net) so you can always re-add that if you want to receive zaps to that address.

Also is my password my nsec?

no… obviously. that would be insanely insecure. The password is deterministic, based off your nsec: sha256(nsec + “:coinos”)

Not sure what that means I did one tap setup so didn’t set up a password or anything

One tap setup should definitely update your bitcoin receive address (lnurl) on your profile.

If you don’t see the update on primal its likely because you are seeing a stale version of your profile since primal does not read from your relay list.

You can edit your profile in damus to verify the address

Thanks it’s updated across clients now. Why do I show as unknown?

Sometimes just closing the client/s and reopening updates everything. So whatever you add to your bitcoin lighting address should be shared across them.

Yup I see it updated in primal now

Are you referring to wanting to sign in at the “coinos.io” website?

I’m just wondering if I need to access the wallet outside of nostr if that’s possible. Also I’m wondering if my strike ln address will work on nostr across clients since that’s my primary custodial wallet.

Yeah, when you’ve used one-click wallet creation within Damus, I am not sure how you access the wallet outside of NOSTR / Damus because, as you say, you’re not given a “password” in order to access the wallet over at www.coinos.io. You can first create a wallet directly at coinos.io and add that to Damus though (via NWC which I mention below). And yes, you can use a Strike address in a NOSTR client to “receive” zaps, which some people do. Just remember that in order to “send” zaps, they will need to leave a wallet that is connected/integrated to the client. I think of it as…. I can receive lightning zaps at any LNURL address I add to my NOSTR profile but sending lightning zaps from within a client requires a wallet to be integrated within the client. This is why Nostr Wallet Connect (NWC) was developed - might be worth reading about that later. It’s why coinos was integrated with Damus so that everything was done for you. You basically receive and send from the one coinos wallet. It’s also why Primal was built with its own integrated wallet (to send and receive zaps within its own wallet). Anyway, I hope you’re all sorted now. And remember, if you post stuff that people like/enjoy they will likely zap you, so that’s one way to fill your receiving address wallet. 🙂

That makes sense. Thanks for answering all my questions!
