Built something pretty cool 👀

A new L2 called Spark dropped a few weeks ago, and it instantly blew my mind.

So I went to work. Since then, I’ve built the foundation for a fully web-based, self-custodial Bitcoin Lightning wallet.

Here’s what it can do so far:

1. Send & receive sats instantly

2. Get your own LNURL address (e.g. you@blitz-wallet.com)

3. Pay to Lightning addresses across the network

4. Same clean, updated UI as Blitz mobile

Try it👇

Built on Spark ⚡

Still early — feedback welcome!

I’d say so since technically you’re “using” the bitcoin. Best would obviously be spending sats directly if a merchant offers it, then buying a gift card from a bitcoin business.

Mostly stability. Some large goals are USDt support, LNURL addresses like misty breez, blitz premium (so it can be sustainable), and adding more app integrations.

New release is live on all platforms!

With #cashu + Blitz Wallet, you can:

- Buy gift cards

- Get VPNs

- Access AI tools

- Swap Cash ↔ Liquid

- Send Lightning

- Pay to Liquid addresses

We also improved our built-in POS terminal!

One thing I think people forget sometimes is optionality. No one is the same therefore we cannot believe everyone will want the same thing. I think us Bitcoiners sometimes get too caught up thinking everyone is eventually going to think/want the same things as us instead of designing more versatile products to handle more cases.

To whoever it may concern,

Google Play says Blitz Wallet is “not available in your region”?

Translation: “Download it from GitHub instead.”

Wait sorry I was driving. What version 0.4.2 did you install? Playstore has a different certificate than apk.

What was the last installed version you have?

If it was from a while ago I had the change signatures for the google play store. All you have to do is delete the old app, install the new version and restore your seed.

Last month I presented Blitz at a nostr:npub1nyyhnqahf3cgqzcc927x7eqyd2msgplfe27ddn6hpgu2m200wh2s0s7gan developer bootcamp—diving into all things Blitz.
