Zaps for baby goats? Daughters FFA goat just had triplet’s today.
Side thought… nostr petting zoo. 🤔 automatic feeder, drops grain pellets when zaps arrive in nostr… arduino feeder app… ok I know silly!
Isn’t there a bounty out for a Craigslist right now? Looks like a good candidate to me.
What table of your dad-abase did you store that joke in?
Yes sir, coast to coast and in between!
First thing that came to mind… “Atreyuuuuuu!!”
Since Wallet of Satoshi has gone down a few times & I saw people asking, I felt it would be good to have a dedicated thread on options for a **receiving** [[LNURL]] address. Save this thread and add others in the comments if you have one not listed.
So in the past 2 weeks I’ve cycled through connecting each of these to #Nostr:
- [Alby](https://getalby.com/)
- Great LN wallet and extension, has custodial option plus can connect numerous other noncustodial to it. Can use to login to LNAUTH websites as well as with your Nostr keys to protect from copy/pasting (honestly it's a need-to-have for Nostr until everyone else integrates the Nostr sign in). Easy & cheap to withdraw
- [Wallet of Satoshi](https://www.walletofsatoshi.com/)
- Custodial, very fast adoption of Nostr and zaps. Just always seems to work and has been reliable for me for years... (until you Zap⚡️Junkies broke them). Easy to withdraw but has much higher fees on bigger payments - I think there's a set percentage.
- [Zebedee](https://zbd.gg/)
- Works great! BUT it freaking emailed me for every zap. It says I can easily change the settings but i searched through the whole menu and got 2 more emails *while* I was looking for how to turn it off and just immediately disconnected it 🤣 — if you can figure that out it seems great otherwise (but custodial). Easy & cheap to withdraw
- [BtcPayServer](https://btcpayserver.org/)
- Setup is a lot more involved & requires you to connect your own web domain, but it's incredibly valuable to have. I use BtcPay for all sorts of crap and it's insanely valuable despite a less intuitive interface when you first get into it. Non-custodial, you hold the keys.
- [Fountain App](https://fountain.fm/)
- Podcasting app, custodial Lightning. Easy and instant setup basically, LNURL is right in your profile. Only headache with them is fixed sized withdraws. Most you can do in any invoice is 200k at a time. Great way to get a fast LNURL though.
- [LN.tips](https://t.me/LightningTipBot)
- My current zap LNURL source. Run by @callebtc, it connects to the (custodial) LightningTipBot on Telegram, so it gives you all your zaps in a scrolling Telegram chat feed. Honestly I just like the interface for viewing zaps more than anything. Easy to withdraw to any non-custodial.
---------------
Wallets I've used that support *sending* to LNURL but don't seem to have support for an address of your own:
- [Phoenix Wallet](https://phoenix.acinq.co/)
- [Breez](https://breez.technology/mobile/)
- going to have a big overhaul soon, I'd keep an eye out
- [Blixt Wallet](https://blixtwallet.github.io/features)
------------
Other wallets that have LNURL support of various kinds (send/receive/both) that I have on my list to test eventually:
- [LNpay](lnpay.co)
- Looks like yoy can send and receive via LNURL – I use this for a lot of other stuff, it's a custodial and/or non-custodial wallet manager with API (kind of like an LNbits as a service to connect to your other apps). Great for webhooks, connecting to code on a website, etc. Looks like you can use own domain for LNURL (though I haven't done it yet).
- [Bottlepay](https://bottlepay.com/)
- [Lifpay](https://www.lifpay.me/en/)
- (don't know much but looks interesting)
- [Balance of Satoshis](https://github.com/alexbosworth/balanceofsatoshis)
- install it on your LND node instance like btcpay, voltage, umbrel, etc. Here it's really useful but haven't gotten time to fully explore.
- [Bitcoin Beach Wallet](https://www.bbw.sv/)
- custodial but will give user an LNURL
- [Simple Bitcoin Wallet](https://sbw.app/)
- [Clams](https://app.clams.tech/welcome)
- Looks like an LNlink sort of app for Core-Lightning. Both are about controlling your LN node *over* the Lightning network, so its direct comms using "empty" payments over other LN nodes.
- [Machankura](https://8333.mobi/)
- Blowing up in Africa from what i read, send directly to phone number or LNURL. Custodial.

I'm sure there are others but these are teh ones I have saved in an ongoing note and what I've had more hands on experience with. Hope this is helpful. 🙏
This has been my experience/frustration for a few weeks now. I’ve tried them all, trying to land on one that is reliable. I have finally got my own BTCpay server, but I have to learn the system still. I’m sure I can master this self sovereignty lifestyle soon.
Keep up this work, it has inspired me and i look forward to your new stuff. Although I have been an IT professional for a long time, only in the past year have I been listening to podcasts and yours has been fun to learn from. 6am coffee and fountain is my new fav time of day!
BTW your 2 hour NVK talk was very engaging and fun. I was in the conversation with you even though you couldn’t hear me. My wife thinks I’m nuts talking to a podcast that can’t hear me! 😂
Amazing interview. Will and NVK really killed it. I just watched two pod casters get purple pilled. NOSTR will free people.
Does it move from house to house like mine has?
If Grandma wants to use nostr, then nostr.com needs to change its site a bit (just my opinion). Its a bit techie and Gramma don't care that its "A decentralized social network with a chance of working", she just wants to click a button, get her user account, and see her grand kids.
When you can present that to the world, you've got it.
Try again, I changed it.
Hmm think I figured it out… I was using a wallet address instead of a lightning address in Damus. Not sure if that’s what was wrong
How so? I’m still learning, but I have wallet of Satoshi and I am able to zap/send but have not received any sats other than transfer from fountain to Satoshi wallets. I can always use advice!
Depends, I still haven’t paid for one because I am still stacking… when you are starting out it takes time. I get my sats on fountain, so it takes a bit to get to 1000 sats.
This zapping stuff must give hodlers anxiety! Too easy to spend! ⚡️⚡️
?cid=2154d3d77689fg0bl1ri1omirthbn2r9pjgaqydy5ege3oj0&rid=giphy.gif&ct=gBahahahah, love it. Whatever the case may be, nostr probably wouldn’t be around just yet if he hadn’t bought and showed everyone what they were censoring. I’m sure nostr would have eventually come, but not as fast.
Ha! I’m in the same boat, except I can’t code very well.
