Many of you should put the time & effort into filling out your Nostr bios. You're missing out on free sats. 😉
If you need some help, DM me. Happy to give you some tips.

How is mine?
Bio looks good. Only thing I'd say is if you want Zap functionality, you'd need to add a NIP-57 (Zap) supported wallet since Wallet of Satoshi doesn't support NIP-57 (yet)
I have GetAlby, is that not good enough?
If not I'll get something else.
I've received Zaps on my posts.
Curious if you're using Damus how it compiles Zaps but I'm not seeing any zaps appearing on your bio in Amethyst. The 5 wallets I know have NIP-57 support at this moment are Strike, ln tip bot, Bitcoin Jungle, vida.page & stacker. news
I'm sure sometime very soon Alby & WoS will offer up Zap support.
oh, so there's another place for the symbol. I had no idea, I keep seeing them on my posts. Okay so, thank you and how do I do this?
So u can actually tip P2P with your get alby address, a zap is a lil bit different as it adds an event to your P2P tip. With Zaps you can see how much you're getting tipped on each note you post & who tipped you (and for how much) within the Nostr client that you're using. If none of that is a big deal for you, you can hold off and wait til getalby adds Zap support for your wallet. If you'd prefer to switch, find one of those 5 wallets I've mentioned and create a wallet & copy the address just like you did with getalby.
I don't know how either but I promise you I have received quite a bit. I have my Alby attached to my profile in settings.
Maybe it's a bug, but I have received a lot, and I can zap people on their posts.
Yeah so u can use the zap button and tip, it just doesn't record an event history along with it.
I see.
The difference for most between just a tip & a zap is probably minor but if you're a content creator and want to be able to view your audience engagement in a measurable fashion, you'll probably want to add Zap support eventually.
As you can see here, the Nostr client compiles who tipped me and for how much through my wallet having Zap support. You can also view how much each specific note you posted has been tipped.
I think I just zapped you. Wow.
So what you need to do if you want to receive zaps yourself into your strike wallet is replace what you have currently with btcitadad@strike.army
OK did that thank you! Is that on my strike profile somewhere or was I just supposed to know that?
Z-Z-Z-Zapped ⚡
Whoa that is awesome. Thank you!
You're welcome 🤙🫂⚡
Now add yourself a real pfp instead of the default bot and you're cookin 😉
zapped for doing the #plebs work
Been trying cant figure it out. Resource you can point me to? Using Amethyst
Find a pfp you like. Upload it to nostr.build
Copy the URL that gets generated. Paste it into the avatar URL section of your bio on Amethyst.
Finally! Thank you again sir!
Hey Hey! Congrats. You've got yourself a nice bio.
You can also add a profile banner to your profile page as well, just do the same thing as before and add the generated url to the 'banner url' section of your bio
Can you see my LNURL symbol now? I connected with Stacker news.
If you don't mind can you check if my zapping icon working? When i click on anyone else's i can choose different amounts but when i click on mine it just shows 500sats and it doesn't look like it works.

Zaps only seem to register here after 1k zaps
Looks like you've got your zaps working. Amethyst only allows for a default of 1000 sat zaps currently but eventually you'll be able to tip whatever once Vitor gets around to adding that functionality
My outgoing Zaps come from GetAlby, and my incoming comes from stacker.
This stinks.
I'd rather it all come from Stacker.
Get Alby isn't a NIP-57 supported wallet just yet so you won't be able to zap unless you add a compatible wallet to your Nostr bio
That address can't be found on Strike. Someone created that address generator from their api
Thank you so much, my Fiend!
I'll be going with LightningTipBot.
I like them so much that I made a logo mascot for them today lol.
Which Ln wallets currently support nip-57? I have WoS as well...
How/Where do I get a cool banner like you’ve got. It’s alive!
Just search for & find or make a cool gif. Then upload it to
Copy the link that it generates & add it into the banner sextion within your bio
I can make hue one too if you tell me what hue would like 🤜🏼⚡️🤛🏼
Which wallet with nip-57 you use?
Lntipbot makes it pretty easy, apparently.
Or stackernews wallet works, too.
Thanks for the suggestion, I used http://nostr.build/ to upload a gif. Looks great in Amethyst but the banner seems to not be loading in https://snort.social any ideas why not? Perhaps some size limit?
