Nah. LNURL/Lightning Address is something else.
I think #[2] got more than that. So it is possible~
Pay for GPT Plus and let it mine all my data?
Or live like a luddite and be replaced by AI (at least AI enabled normies for now)?
*We need a Poll function in Nostr.
Perhaps. But I can’t get it working. This is a dev with enough server knowledge to put a website on a VPS. Definitely no Lightning or networking expert. But I’d say 99.99% of people would just download a WoS if they really want to Zap, and that’s the anti-pattern I’m talking about.
Yes. The problem is to get a valid LNURL/Lightning Address with a working web server on the other end of it.
I don’t see the ability to generate a LNURL on Zeus. Let alone if its NIP-57 supporting. As it is your Nostr profile doesn’t have a LNURL address to Zap to.
In proportion to their follower count. Otherwise going to get drained in no time for no return by bot accounts.
Perhaps, but as it is it doesn’t seem it have implemented NIP-57. So WoS is still the only realistic way. And that’s what Zap did, onboarded a whole bunch of people to a LN custodial solution.
How can the outside world even see your node without a reverse proxy at the router level at least?
I cannot find any info from 30 seconds of Brave Search that indicates this setup will generate LNURL with NIP-57. And not certain whether my browser needs to be always on to service LNURL requests.
Took a quick read of LNC, but seems like it connects your browser to your node. So at the least your browser needs to be always on and act as a web server or something then?
Most plebs would have already downloaded Wallet of Satoshi by now.
Yes, you’d at least need to reverse proxy to your node. Then maybe LNBits will be able to take LNURL payment with Zaps. Even Btcpayserver doesn’t do NIP-57 today.
Whose actually going to do that? Most plebs just going to download Wallet of Satoshi.
Zap before BOLT12 is irresponsible LARPING and putting ‘fun’ over Bitcoin.
Even if Btcpayserver supports NIP-57, one’d still need to muck with their router to do a reverse proxy and have the RaspPi exposed clearnet to the internet.
I can now see why the Lightning community is such up in arms about LNURL and Lightning Lab’s reluctance to invest in #BOT12.
Clarifying in case ‘taking LNURL + Zaps’ wasn’t clear. I am talking about receiving Zaps. Not Zapping into LNURL. The latter I’d recommend Breez wallet.
Alby needs to be always on then? Unless your node is also a web server that serves LNURLs?
Even Btcpayserver doesn’t support NIP-57.
LNURL + Zap basically made everyone move to a custodial LN wallet. As if LN is not centralized enough.
Hot Take: I am officially against #LNURL and #Zaps, at least the way it’s been rolled out. #Nostr Zaps basically pushed everyone to @Wallet of Satoshi which is custodial and hugely centralizing to LN. I have a RaspPi and still, there’s no easy way to take LNURL and Zaps. Even with a VPS it’s non-trivial to get non-custodial LNURL+Zaps going.
Look, you all can ‘have fun’ on Nostr (Parker Lewis on TFTC described as wasting time). But when you are harming #Bitcoin then you have lost the plot.
If you LARP around then you will find out what a CBDC world looks like.
Do we still need 2 actual implementations before a NIP will be considered?
Added my LNURL late. But still hoping to get some Zaps = )
