 I tried bro. It wouldn't send. 
 Oh thanks bro. My Phoenix wallet link may be buggy. Or something  
 I got the zap from you, but I still can't send you any...? 
 I test zapped another user. It seemed to work OK. 🤷‍♂️ 
 Just heard back from customer service. By default, Phoenix wallet uses a new Bolt12 lnurl format that hardly any other wallets are compatible with yet. Bolt12 is "just a few months old" apparently. Trying to decide if i should wait a bit or switch to another wallet. Btw, what wallet do you use, and are ypu happy with it?  
 I am using #coinos. It's custodial,  but I only keep 10 bucks or so in it specifically for zapping on #nostr. 

I use #amethyst and I link my coinos wallet to #alby via NWC because that lets me zap natively in the amethyst app (without needing to open my wallet outside of the app). 
 Awesomeness, thank you bro. Guess this is the problem but I'm gonna stick with Phoenix for now, fyi. https://image.nostr.build/bcf48ffaa6c68a8593325cf32cafd73269eddaa4e4923d0f754ba6772b180750.jpg 
 It makes a lot of sense. Coinos should update or something. I'll repay your zap as soon as I can. 

If I had a working non-custodial solution I wouldn't switch either. 
 😯 Hey, no need to repay zaps bro. Forget about it. Tbh, i kinda like the ability to zap others knowing that hardly anyone (for now) can zap me. Fyi, i did take your suggestion and opened a coinos account but custodial options just aren't for me, sadly. "not my keys, not my sats, etc". If and when you're ready to upgrade to a self-custodial wallet like phoenix or others, let me know so i can send sats if you need liquidity or any help.  
 Ty. I will.  
 I zapped via the qr code. 200 sats. Zap pow. 
 Aww, dude, no need lol.  But hey , thanks  
 Received 203 sats, thanks. Maybe i should use the qr code as my pic 🤣🤣
