Big news! Thanks to a grant from nostr:npub10pensatlcfwktnvjjw2dtem38n6rvw8g6fv73h84cuacxn4c28eqyfn34f , we're adding some more Nostr features to Mutiny Wallet! First up: a live Zaps Feed to see who your friends are zapping.
https://blog.mutinywallet.com/content/images/2023/09/nostr-sync.webp
Having a different contact list for payments app is annoying and lame. With Mutiny Wallet you can now just import your nostr follows as contacts. All you need is an npub. It's easy to use and there's zero lock-in. Protocols not platforms!

The Zaps Feed, inspired by nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft with ZapLife.lol, shows you who your friends are zapping and who is zapping them. It's like Venmo's social payments but with a nostr twist. Learn more about it here: https://blog.mutinywallet.com/nostr-contacts-and-zap-feed
Big thanks to nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg for adding a `zaps_feed` to their API. We're now running our own Primal server to keep things decentralized: https://primal-cache.mutinywallet.com/api
These new features complement some of the existing integrations we have like Nostr Wallet Connect. This allows for payment requests to show up right inside your wallet for you to approve.
https://blog.mutinywallet.com/content/images/2023/09/nwczaps.webp
We're far from done! Stay tuned for non-custodial zap receives and new NWC features like budgeting. Try the Zaps Feed on Mutiny Wallet now and share your thoughts!
The web version of the wallet is at https://app.mutinywallet.com - if you already have it installed as a Progressive Web App, just close and refresh! The android version is located here: https://github.com/MutinyWallet/mutiny-web/releases/tag/v0.4.16
