Lightning is bitcoin. Are you on desktop or mobile? I use two different ones. Alby is a desktop one with a browser plug in Wallet of Satoshi is a mobile wallet... Then just send Sats from your regular wallet to it. I wouldn't keep any Sats in coin base, just use that to onboard your bitcoin from US dollars.

Perfect. I’ll give that a go!
Then you can attach your lightning address to your profile... Your lightning address will be an email looking think like mine is worthybill53@alby.com or worthybill53@walletofshatoshi.com
Thanks - navigating the required connections is not computing in my brain. 🧠
But there’s a reason for everything. Gotta keep the slackers out.
