True, know personally such cases. Also Kamut, Emmer and other original wheat types.
If you sweep regularly to phoenix i see no problem. Just a temporary bridge until bolt12.
Zapping with 2 tips on Damus + WoS
Looks like it will zap random users posting on relays until there are sats left in the pool.
History shows us not the best tech is always the winner. So even if bluesky is superior it’s too late IMO
Train left the station already and with momentum
Yeah valid point.
Brain dead. 🤡
Not right now. The problem is LN addresses require a centralized provider. Of course you can always self host with BTCPayServer but still not nip-57 comprabile and not realistic for most users. Maybe a LN routing address to forward sats automatically could be done in stone way 🤔
The LightingTipBot is really the Bitcoin/Nostr onboarding way:
1) Join the bot https://t.me/LightningTipBot to immediately obtain a (custodial) LN wallet with a LN that match your username (xxx@ln.tips) and an anonymous one useful if you don't want dox yourself; put it in you Nostr profile.
2) Use the "/nostr add" command to link your pubkey and start to register the zaps attached to every post; the bot also notifies every zap with the sender message.
3) Use the "/link" command to get the private lndhub URL; with this you can configure Alby (browser extension) and Bluewallet (Android/IOS/macOS) to have a unique wallet across all devices for an integrated experience.
4) Zap and receive zaps ⚡ and start to think the bitcoin v4v way; if you are a creator you have huge opportunities.
5) Bonus point: tip friends on Telegram and propose them to embrace Bitcoin/Nostr.
Objections:
Why use a Telegram bot instead of go all-in with Nostr?
Simply because a similar bot doesn't still exist for Nostr, even if I'm quite sure #[0] is working on something 👀
Then Telegram attracts people that already realize that there are a lot of possibilities, and quality ones, outside the small fake-golden Meta garden, so it is a perfect place to onboard new aware users.
Plus the bot and lndhub are open source.
Why a custodial wallet?
Today custodial LN is quite hard to start, we have great projects like OBW and Blixt that already permit it, but it's an harder step for a newcomer. To experience the coffee-zapb magic a custodial solution is reasonable. Don't let the perfection kill the excellency.
Shout-out to #[1] to have built it! 🙌⚡
Why not WoS if custodial. No account required.
Yeah a very much needed feature. #[2]
What happened to fauci files? Elon serving the ads companies now.
Oops so many typos. *is and *like
Like it’s different IMO. You leave a line to signal agreement or that something is funny or cool. Zap ⚡️ is v4v meaning that a post is valuable to you.
