Its great for zapping but for receiving zaps with you need an lnurl server.
#asknostr Anyone have experience with this? https://www.revolut.com
- What's their privacy-situation like?
- Who, and from where, is it maintained?
- Is it trustworthy?
They seem to be a Paypal alternative... but i dunno what to think of it. o.o So I am looking for some blurbs of experience elsewhere.
They shut me down without explanation. They spy on your transactions and demand documentation about your funds. They block your account and make it unusable. Stay far away from these tyrants.

So technicalIy with lightning its not possible, but with anything running on top of lightning it is possible. A custodial lightning wallet could 'make up' sats and be similar to fractional reserve banking. Nobody will notice until their is a run on the wallet.
No paper sats with the standard lightning protocol. A channel will be funded by an on-chain funding transaction which is always claimable. There is something called 'hosted channels' that does not require that but it does not work out of the box. https://sbw.app/posts/scaling-ln-with-hosted-channels/
True and many just removed their NIP-05 like Jack f.e.. Its a first try but far from perfect.
Please welcome Spring - the nostr browser.
This is the first public Android release, we're submitting to the Play Store, but an APK is ready for you to try: https://github.com/nostrband/nostr-universe/releases/download/v0.1.0/spring-nostr-browser-v0.1.0.apk
The app is open source: https://github.com/nostrband/nostr-universe/
We believe this category of a Nostr-specific browser is a very powerful tool for all the nostriches and bitcoiners. It takes the experience of using Nostr micro-apps to the next level, and should help accelerate the adoption of non-social Nostr use cases.
Some screenshots are here:
If you hesitate to paste your nsec into the app, we totally get it - just use your (or someone else's) npub to log in and look around. However, if you do add your real keys - those are handled by a separate library, stored in an encrypted form and protected by the Android keystore, inaccessible to any JS code, immune to XSS or app-level bugs.
What you can do today:
- add nsec keys or npubs, switch between keys
- browse various interesting events on the homepage - trending stuff, suggested profiles, big zaps, highlights, long posts, live streams, nostr web apps
- open any event in any web app that supports this event kind and has been published on nostr using NIP-89
- open/close/hide the browser tabs, grouped by app/domain
- log in inside the opened apps as if you have the 'browser extension' (nip-07 interface injected into tabs)
- pin apps/tabs to your app "drawer" for fast access
- access your contact list at the search page, profiles sorted by recently-accessed first
- search through profiles, notes and long posts
- tab menu - if there is an event-id/npub in the url of the opened tab, you can zap the event, or open with another app from the menu (more coming soon)
- context menu - if you long-tap on a link with event-id/npub in the url, you can zap/open-with from the context menu
- nostr: links clicked inside a tab are handled by showing a list of apps that support this event (NIP-89)
- long-tap on a text selection with event-id/npub to open the context menu to zap/open-with
- paste a url to the search bar to open it in a new tab
- paste an event-id/npub into the search bar to open it in a new tab
IMPORTANT: nostr apps running inside the browser tabs can sign events and decrypt private messages without a confirmation screen and your explicit permission - do not use apps you don't trust until we implement proper app permission management.
What is coming:
- key access permission management
- reordering of pins in the app drawer
- more event kinds on the homepage
- search for more event kinds
- tab switcher screen
- NWC to inject WebLN into tabs
- custom feeds on the home screen
- custom tab/context menu items
- DVMs for translation, transcription etc
- and much more!
What do you think?
Congrats, great first release... where does stuff go when you download things?
I think using your own domain name does give it more credibility but a lot of users dont control their own domain name so then its value is questionable
Its about event type 3 which is the npubs you are following. Your profile is stored in event type 0 described in NIP-01
Look into nextcloud and photoprism. I run it from my node.
It's one of the reasons why censorship-resistant tech like #nostr and #bitcoin was developed. These are tools for protecting yourself against state and big-tech tyranny.

It doesn't load at all in my Amethyst
I've not used wasabi but people I respect tell me to avoid it like the plague.
What’s #pepethon? #asknostr
