Makes totally sense. Naming things is hard. Descriptive, easy to remember, easy to understand for developers and consumers are some of the criteria to find a suitable name for it 🤔
Thanks for the feedback. Bad branding because too close to Bitconnect?
If Unstoppable wallet does not support the lightning network you can send the bitcoin via the Alby extension to an onchain address from your Unstoppable Wallet. Unfortunately, this requires a minimum amount of BTC as you noticed.
Alby is BTC only. You can deposit to a bitcoin onchain address and to your Alby lightning address.
For sending via the Alby browser extension you can also do that to an onchain bitcoin address but the amount needs to be within a certain range. Or you send BTC via the lightning network. That's what Alby can do best.
Is someone passing by or starting from Zurich or Switzerland the next days to nostr:npub1nstrcu63lzpjkz94djajuz2evrgu2psd66cwgc0gz0c0qazezx0q9urg5l? A missing accessory needs to be returned to a fellow bitcoiner in Tokyo. Any hint is highly appreciated!!!
Alby is a bitcoin lightning account. You can connect it to many apps (e.g. to the browser extension).
Have you tried connecting Alby to Amethyst? https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Cx9tqunnj20
nostr:npub1q5sah9f3p9kl7uqdeaqskqwmg74ktxx70e0093dzh4lpzcp3t0mqzxky65 just FYI the note I tried to zap 2x was nostr:note1c0rcfsp4ejtxa3ks4l0vtj6vk4eskrze33hjudhw2ltcdvqgrwdsfl4h2j
I then went to Gyser and zapped the fund raiser directly. Those zaps should display directly below this.

Can you contact me directly? moritz@ getalby. com
I can help you quicker via DM and check which payments were settled successfully and which not.
Kiwi stopped working with Alby after one of their updates, unfortunately. We are researching alternatives. Unfortunately, mobile browsers have still very limited support for extensions.
Hey, likely the payments did not go out in the first place as a reason why you don't find them in the tx log. It might be the receiving end did not send an answer on time. Could you let us know the tx ID and dm us at support@ getalby. com?
There is a guide to connect your Alby account to Zeus: https://guides.getalby.com/alby-guides/alby-lightning-account/connect-your-alby-lightning-account-to-other-apps/connect-to-mobile-apps/connect-to-zeus
Sorry for this experience. Alby is a client side only app. We don't have any means to remotely check what's going on. That's why screenshot are always helpful. When exactly do you see "client not started error"? Is it the same error on Brave and Firefox?
Thank you nostr:npub1h8nk2346qezka5cpm8jjh3yl5j88pf4ly2ptu7s6uu55wcfqy0wq36rpev ! I will try to zap you later, alby does not seem to work now.
How can I help with regarding Alby? I just zapped nostr:npub1h8nk2346qezka5cpm8jjh3yl5j88pf4ly2ptu7s6uu55wcfqy0wq36rpev Happy to help at support@ getalby. com or via DM.
wtf is up with alby.
i thought it must have been brave, causing the "client not started error". so i finally caved and installed firefox and try to set up alby and it pops up a page that shows a * only in the body and some giant long URL and same error as brave in the background where the alby setup page was running.
gonna play with firefox now anyway, but what's going on? nostr:nprofile1qqsq2gwmj5csjm0lwqxu7sgtq8d502m9nr08uhhjck3t6ls3vqc4haspz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq3samnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwwdhx7un59eek7cmfv9kqz9nhwden5te0wfjkccte9ehx7um5wghxyctwvsu5rux3
i didn't change any settings at all on this firefox, just added a few extensions that shouldn't have had any impact.
unless keepassxc is involved???
Thanks for reporting this. I haven't observed something like that yet. Can you send a screenshot of what happened to support@ getalby. com? I will immediately look into it. 🙏

Please give it a try. But we had some users reporting that Kiwi is not compatible any more with the Alby extension. That's why we are researching alternatives for mobile.
You can try it here. But please leave your email address so that we can contact you in case there are changes in the json file which needs to be hosted by you. https://guides.getalby.com/alby-guides/alby-lightning-account/where-to-use-your-lightning-address/how-to-use-your-own-domain-as-your-lightning-address
