You have been a great help to get the Hub out and usable. Thanks for the patience and feedback early on! 🙏
I'm trying to manually pair my Alby Hub to my NWC compatible nostr:nprofile1qqstxwlea9ah3u6kjjszu6a7lrnhqkfh8eptp2z6v0e9558tlkkl2rgpzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcpremhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet59u4kl3vp wallet
Minibits is open
I generate the connection secret in Minibits and input it in Alby Hub manual pairing field
I get a connection timeout error even though Minibits is open and running on the same phone
do you have a screenshot for me?
We have Alby Go already in the nostr:npub10r8xl2njyepcw2zwv3a6dyufj4e4ajx86hz6v4ehu4gnpupxxp7stjt2p8 it's the easiest mobile app to use Bitcoin on the Go. Built for the Hub (and NWC).
we'll get there. but if you ask on nostr you should find somebody with an invite already.
they do that intentionally for security reasons.
I tried linking my nostr:nprofile1qqsyv47lazt9h6ycp2fsw270khje5egjgsrdkrupjg27u796g7f5k0spzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcprdmhxue69uhkummnw3ez6vfwde3x7tnpdenkzmnf9e3k75xqss4 wallet to my nostr:nprofile1qqstxwlea9ah3u6kjjszu6a7lrnhqkfh8eptp2z6v0e9558tlkkl2rgpzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcpremhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet59u4kl3vp wallet using NWC
I generated the secret code on Minibits and input it on the Alby side
Didn't work
What's up?
#asknostr
what exactly do you try? where do you enter it?
do you have minibits open?

send me some negative feedback on Alby Hub. What do we need to fix asap for you?
a channel is basically your connection to the payment network.
the network and tools get better and more resilient each time something unexpected happens.
compare what we have today to what we had a year or two ago…
this looks gooood! 🤩

Well. I tried ro get streaming to Nostr up by this morning, but am stuck behind an Alby issue (need a non custodial wallet to connect to and not sure which I want at this hot moment).
Anywho, we are recording our weekly Homestead Happenings Podcast in 30 mins.
Here is the yt link. If i manage to figure my nostr shit out by then, ill alsp stream here.

Why wouldn't you want a non custodial wallet? - try it I bet you will like it.
We're always happy to help if you have questions.
It depends on their nodes. Typically opening channels is not disabled (bigger nodes require a minimum size often)
The two nodes communicate with each other. No human interaction is involved there.
Can one open private channels to other individual noderunners from nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm Hub (cloud node)?
Or can you only open channels to the recommended LSPs?
I see *where* to open a channel to a “custom peer” so it seems doable, but not entirely sure how to start.
Do you contact the other person and both set it up simultaneously? Does one person just enable it and the other is somehow notified of an inbound channel-open-request? What’s the actual process of two individuals opening a Lightning channel between their nodes?
Any recommended documentation will be appreciated (and zapped) 🫡
#asknostr #lightning #thanksnostr
this works as in any other node implementation.
You can open channels to nodes that are available through the public internet (not Tor).
Just enter the details (e.g. you can get those also from an explorer like amboss) and open the channel for a certain amount.
