Use a wallet that has lightning. A very easy wallet to get started with is wallet of Satoshi, but it's custodial. Play around with it for a little bit. Then move to a non custodial one like Phoenix. You can also use a custodial wallet on Primal I believe. Which is very quick and easy to use for zaps on Nostr. Hit me up if you get stuck.

What exactly does custodial vs noncustodial mean? For Nostr zapping currently I use Alby, but I'm down to change it. I have lightning enabled in Green but I can tell it's not fully baked in

Custodial means that a company owns your coins. You don't actually one the Bitcoin in the wallet.

Non custodial means that you own the Bitcoin and you own the private keys.

For alby, it's custodial but they plan on removing that so that you have to run your own lightning node to use it. It should work for now though.

I've never used green but if they give you a lightning address it should work for zaps.

How do I connect my Phoenix wallet to my primal account?
