Question: Let's say I self-host Alby Hub. So that's a lightning node and wallet. I can open a channel with nostr:nprofile1qqs0h7ec2h2scduxdtcqfp9xgangpts79lcye6uamzfkge0hp5u32zcpp4mhxue69uhhjctzw5hx6egpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfdu46puj5

Do I need to run my own Bitcoin Node or do you provide this service?

I don't want to use nostr:nprofile1qqsyv47lazt9h6ycp2fsw270khje5egjgsrdkrupjg27u796g7f5k0spzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcprdmhxue69uhkummnw3ez6vfwde3x7tnpdenkzmnf9e3k75xqss4 Cloud

Apparently It has its own 👍🏼 similar to Phoenix and Zeus self custodial wallets.

I'm starting to think that LSPs connect to Bitcoin nodes and you just need a lightning node and channels as with nostr:nprofile1qqsrf5h4ya83jk8u6t9jgc76h6kalz3plp9vusjpm2ygqgalqhxgp9gpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzyrhwden5te0dehhxarj9ekxzmnyqyt8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnwdaehgu3wvfskueq555fk2

You need a bitcoin core but could run it as a neutrino / pruned bitcoin core

maven leo 1y ago

When you use nostr:nprofile1qqsrf5h4ya83jk8u6t9jgc76h6kalz3plp9vusjpm2ygqgalqhxgp9gpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzyrhwden5te0dehhxarj9ekxzmnyqyt8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnwdaehgu3wvfskueq555fk2 wallet, you just open a channel. You don't run a bitcoin node

Maybe the LSPs connect to the Bitcoin Node 🤔

The node in the phone uses LND+Neutrino

maven leo 1y ago

Same with nostr:nprofile1qqsyv47lazt9h6ycp2fsw270khje5egjgsrdkrupjg27u796g7f5k0spzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcprdmhxue69uhkummnw3ez6vfwde3x7tnpdenkzmnf9e3k75xqss4 I suppose

ZEUS 1y ago

No. Alby Hub depends on how you configure it:

Default: LDK with Electrum for fetching blocks

LND: Neutrino, Core, or BTCD

Phoenixd: Mempool.space instance

StellarStoic 1y ago

So, albyHub runs as nutrino then?

A setup with raspberry pi Zero2 is not connected on any bitcoin core physically.

Arándano 1y ago

If you select eCash mints, you just need Alby Hub.

bumi 1y ago

You do NOT need to run your own Bitcoin node. You can use the Alby one or configure any another one or run your own with an esplora API.

So nostr:nprofile1qqsyv47lazt9h6ycp2fsw270khje5egjgsrdkrupjg27u796g7f5k0spzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcprdmhxue69uhkummnw3ez6vfwde3x7tnpdenkzmnf9e3k75xqss4 Hub ships with some kind of a pruned node / neutrino?

bumi 1y ago

LDK: https://github.com/lightningdevkit/

and the blockchain data is received from a remote block explorer

Rod 1y ago

You don't need a node. I am using Alby with Phoenixd backend, and it's very easy to set up. This may help. https://rodbishop.npub.pro/post/setting-up-payments-on-nostr-7o6ls7/

Thank you 👍
