# ⚡️ Nostr zaps - a guide 💜

Time to get you zappin' with LightningTipBot (https://ln.tips). This is my personal setup. There are other ways and services to do this. Do you own research. This is just a suggestion.

## 1) Set up LightningTipBot wallet

- Click here: https://LN.tips 👈

- You're done.

## 2) Sending zaps

Let's start with sending. You don't need much. Any Lightning wallet will do. I will describe how to use LightningTipBot to zap with.

### Sending zaps in the browser

- Get the Alby brower extension at https://getalby.com/

- Go to LightningTipBot and enter "/link"

- Copy the details and go to Alby and add a new "LNDHUB" wallet

- Enter your details

- Your LightningTipBot wallet can now be controlled from your browser

- Click on the ⚡️ zap icon for example in iris.to and you'll be able to send zaps.

### Sending zaps on mobile

- You can also "/link" your wallet to BlueWallet

- Get BlueWallet from the App store

- Import a new Lightning wallet

- Enter your credentials from LightningTipBot

- You can now control your LightningTipBot wallet from Bluewallet

- Click the ⚡️ zap icon for example in Amethyst or Damus and open BlueWallet.

- Pay and zap on

## 3) Receiving zaps

You can receive zaps with pretty much any Lightning address provider. There are many options. See: https://lightningaddress.com/

However, if you want the zaps to appear under your posts in Damus or Snort.social, you'll have a few less options (still). Here is how to do it with LightningTipBot:

- Go to LightningTipBot. Enter "/help" if you don't know your Lightning address.

- See your address? Mine is callebtc@ln.tips

- Optional: Enter "/advanced" to get an anonymous address if you don't want to doxx your Telegram username.

- Put your Lightning address into your nostr profile

- In LightningTipBot, register your nostr pubkey with "/nostr add "

- You're done! You'll receive zaps and they will be shown under your zapped posts!

## 3) NIP-57 support

Zaps (those which appear under a note) are formalized in NIP-57. Currently, they are supported by the following services. This is probably not a complete list and tomorrow there might be even more:

### 💜 Sending (Nostr clients):

- Snort.social (https://snort.social/)

- Damus (http://damus.io/)

### ⚡️ Receiving (Lightning wallets):

- LightningTipBot (https://LN.tips)

- VIDA (https://vida.live/)

- Stacker.news (https://stacker.news/)

- strike.army (https://strike.army/)

1517 - Martin Luther utilized the novel printing-press to end the Catholic Church's dark tyrannic censorship of written knowledge, pull the world out of the dark ages, and in to the Renaissance of human creativity and prosperity. The truth and knowledge was introduced to the people trough the power of the printing-press and the PROTESTANT REFORMATION

2008 - Satoshi published his discovery of absolute mathematical digital scarcity, with the decentralized censorship resistant ₿itcoin protocol - p2p digital cash - whitepaper. Bitcoin/LN/++ ensured freedom-of-transaction for humankind and became the global digital base-monetary-layer that set in motion the unstoppable MONETARY REFORMATION

2022 - #[0] released the Nostr protocol, to send notes and other stuff over decentralized relays, and by doing so, ensured freedom-to-communicate without bigtech-algos tyrannic manipulation and censorship. It slowly, then rapidly gained thousands of freedom loving early adopters and developers, to mention a few; #[1] #[2] #[3] #[4] #[5] #[6] #[7] and YOU - all helped to obsolete centralized social media, and kickstart the digital free-speech-protocol that enabled the INFORMATION REFORMATION

Forged by human ingenuity trough the FOSS community ethos, interconnected by the freedom of- knowledge, transaction and communication, collectively form the human-freedom-trinity, that will secure immutable sovereignty and prosperity for all of human kind 🫂

If you are reading this, ANON. YOU are the peaceful monetary information reformation of truth and love. I thank YOU 💜 And salute YOU ✊

Thanks to (if you are not mentioned im sorry, I love you) anyone that; ever developed FOSS protocols and code (especially TCP/IP, HTTP, JavaScript, Linux/GNU, Bitcoin etc)🙏, run Relays or Bitcoin/LN nodes, the greeters, the donors, content creators, HW producers, Bitcoin-Maxis, meme artists, podcasters and all users: #[8] #[9] #[10] #[11] #[12] #[13] #[14] #[15] #[16] #[17] #[18] #[19] #[20] #[21] – and finally, thanks to the anon that made the original two “31. Oct” tiles. Legend!

Nostr timeline always in order

What a time to be alive.

And there's nothing we can do about it!! 😂 😂.

Accidental relicks...

Relick does sound better than retweet or boosted! You might be on to something! 🤙

Another day on Nostr, another misclicked repost 🤦‍♂️.
