Just switched to Zeus + Alby from Wos - fully open source setup
Thanks #[0] #[1] for this recommandation

You can also use "LN.tips" with Zeus. Works great
Will try that, thanks ! 🫂
I just did the setup,
Created the wallet on Telegram,
Generated the QR code and linked it to Zeus
Added my pubkey to the wallet
I don’t know if it’s enough.
can you please send 1 sat to this address :
0x14bfcfec4fc5ba6e@ln.tips
Invalid user, your telegram username + @ln.tips should be your wallet address
Can you try with amine0s@ln.tips
I think you are not setting that up property
Is it connecting to Zeus properly
I scanned the ln.tips qr with Zeus but it does not seem to be connecting properly
What problem you are facing?
Can you send the payments using Zeus?
It worked for me when I paid to 0x14bfcfec4fc5ba6e@ln.tips — that’s the private account LN.tips gives you so you don’t have to reveal your Telegram handle.
Exactly it’s working properly now, I think when I shared it earlier it was initializing maybe..that’s my only explanation 😅
I can successfully send to my ln.tips address but Zeus is not picking that up. It’s not refreshing, which tells me there might be somethig wrong with the configuration.
I had a delay also when I did the setup, the sync between Zeus and Telegram was not immediate
If you set Zeus up correctly connecting to LN.tips via LNDHub using the QR code it should work seamlessly. I can see the same balance and payment history in both places.
You can run your own non custodial ln.tip instance https://www.massmux.com/howto-complete-lightningtipbot-lnbits-setup-vps/
What am I supposed to enter in these fields for the ln.tips connection?
I will try this out tonight!
Thanks, iefan. 🧡
my pleasure. glad you got things set up!
as an infosec professional. i do not recommend telegram or its bots. telegram has a history of bad security flaws, they log ip addresses and retain that info for 12 months (use a vpn), and e2e encryption is not enabled by default like signal. a german investigation also found that telegram is actively sharing data with government agencies as well as censoring content at their behest.
