Yes got it working on Damus 👌🏼
Is it possible to get my nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm wallet connected to the Primal iOS app? Cc nostr:npub13sajvl5ak6cpz4ycesl0e5v869r5sey5pt50l9mcy6uas0fqtpmscth4np
Having a blast at nostr:npub1uv2tr83c5y7k82af6zdzlqs8m0klcmndd8u5vmlg2eyrskld6uzsv4rmr8 , been living on a #bitcoin standard since I arrived here. And finally had the chance to meet Hermann from nostr:npub1zkr064avsxmxzaasppamps86ge0npwvft9yu3ymgxmk9umx3xyeq9sk6ec and nostr:npub1flac02t5hw6jljk8x7mec22uq37ert8d3y3mpwzcma726g5pz4lsmfzlk6 from nostr:npub13ljnkd633c7maxatymv3y2fqq8vt3qk7j3tt0vytv90eztwgha9qmfcfhw in person 😎👌🏼 
I was stuck in the #Bitcoin lightning network and had a hard time to find the enthusiasm I had when I interacted with it for the first time in 2020. But the past couple of days I’m testing nostr:npub1ex7mdykw786qxvmtuls208uyxmn0hse95rfwsarvfde5yg6wy7jq6qvyt9 in Europe and that brought me back to where my lightning journey started

4/4 The thing that stoot out to me the most was that we both didn’t noticed the lightning network was used, it was all under the hood. A lot of the guests we had on the show at Connect The World say that bitcoin succeeds when people don’t know they’re using #bitcoin anymore. Here it is!
2/4 Not because of the app itself, which is great by the way, simple, no distractions, lightning native but also the possibility to get your #bitcoin onchain. It was because of me sending €5,- to Ghana 🇬🇭 in a split second using only a phone number. https://video.nostr.build/2754696e2e365f9370aeacae075b6a05af480e7724d39e3a1164b9ac6cc6d73a.mp4
3/4 There was an issues with @Bit that led to a delay in notifying nostr:npub1yyt2uhvjsdfqpfuqe4e9k0ft4cy6ln0z2jv2unvywj49hmhx4tkqw0vz67 he received the money. But he did receive my €5,- in his currency of preference (USD), with a fairly decent exchange rate ($0.05 lost)

So I’ve sent nostr:npub1yyt2uhvjsdfqpfuqe4e9k0ft4cy6ln0z2jv2unvywj49hmhx4tkqw0vz67 €5,- using the ‘Send cash globally’ service in nostr:npub1ex7mdykw786qxvmtuls208uyxmn0hse95rfwsarvfde5yg6wy7jq6qvyt9 3,5 hours ago and it’s still pending in his mobile account. That’s not what we’ve hoped for 😇nostr:npub1cn4t4cd78nm900qc2hhqte5aa8c9njm6qkfzw95tszufwcwtcnsq7g3vle Shouldn’t this be instant? https://video.nostr.build/dffeaeb72da42bfc8b44a28f12770ad54fab6224931eb2793ccfcfe8ba0c064c.mp4
Turns out that it was an issue at the Bitnob side, it’s now received at a very fair exchange rate @Strike (€5,- to $5.25). You guys rock ⚡️
