β¨ Introducing Alby Hub β¨
https://m.primal.net/Jcqd.jpg
Alby Hub is a new, open source self-custodial wallet from Alby designed to be used in Nostr, mobile & desktop apps, websites, games and more!
It is a one-click install node that lets you connect to dozens of
@NWC apps.
π Best part - you can use it with Alby Account and that means you can use it with your lightning address. You can also still log in to apps that support "Log in with Alby"

π We are rolling out access to the public β if you are interested in Alby Hub, join the waitlist and you'll get it soon π
https://getalby.com/waitlist
π Alby Hub works best when it runs 24/7, so users can plug it into many different apps and use it everywhere β on the web, on the go with mobile wallets, inside apps and games β no matter the platform!
https://m.primal.net/Jcqn.jpg
π We focus on streamlining the experience of using your wallet in the apps you already love. We have some plans on deeper and deeper Nostr integration, you your Hub will only get more powerful with time π
https://m.primal.net/Jcqp.jpg
π Your keys are safe and encrypted by a password of your choice. Alby cannot access your funds or reset your password: your sats are truly yours, and with that comes responsibility!
https://m.primal.net/Jcqq.jpg
π§ To make spinning up your Hub quick and smooth, we offer Alby Cloud subscription for our users. For 21k sats / month you don't need to worry about any hardware or server hassle: you get a link access to your hub, priority in-app support, access to Alby Buzz community of Alby supporters, and more to come!
https://m.primal.net/Jcqm.jpg
π However, Alby Hub is100% open-source and you can also run it completely for free on your own device, personal server or cloud. Feel free to verify, suggest and contribute to code: https://github.com/getAlby/hub
β‘ Our mission is to make lightning decentralised and easy. And make some of those zaps stats less custodial... We're working on creating an experience to open and manage your first lightning channel that's not scary or difficult.

Super cool going to give this a go π
And here it goes π
Own your keys, run it in a cloud and safely use your wallet in apps.
You can use it in the browser extension, mobile apps, native apps, games, podcasting apps β anywhere you were able to use Alby Account so far and anywhere with expanding @NWC
Self-custodial zaps never been easier

Looks great. Thanks for providing solutions for different sets of people and their varying technical skills.
Morning Surprise ππ€π«
Congrats on the launch π β‘οΈ
Looking forward to the invite. Thanks!!!
Already joined @Alby Hub waitlist π βοΈ
So, is it a normal BTC on-chain wallet and if connected to, let's say, Primal.net you can zap straight from that wallet, instead from a Lightning address?
It's a lightning wallet / node!
That's awesome news. Can't waitπͺπ
π€ Congrats @Alby ONWARD π«‘
How much do we need to open a channel?
2 channels are enough to go on the zapping spree. You can just get them from a LSP in the app or open a custom one as a pro user.
Had mine setup. Zapping has been a lot more smoother and more frequent since then π€
Does it work as a nip-46 remote signer for nostr content or is it just a remote self host for your wallet?
Wow, an LN node that can sign in to several nostr applications and website. I always use it when using a browser on desktop.
Wen supports ecash, or make mint ? π
would people use their lightning wallets as primary wallets for #nostr going forward? wouldn't e-cash mints take over that place? @PABLOF7z
π± I did not know that same user can do two zaps to the same note!
Is this a feature/bug?
https://m.primal.net/JegL.png
Itβs a feature. You can do all the zaps you want as long as you have the sats
This is so good
nostr:nevent1qqsvzkwvvf0cq67lf7nddm4rtg7x8zaqdwurkw7nv9lx3yzcgx3andcpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgtczypr90hlgjed73xq2jvrjhna4ukdx2yjyqmdslqvjzhh83wj8jd9nuqcyqqqqqqgdua8ca
Quite a complex setup.
Trying to use a new "isolated" account as a sandbox.
Amethyst is saying correctly 0 balance when I try to zap but Zeus is now showing full node balance. Before it used to show my custodial alby balance.
Was expecting Zeus to show 0?
How do you connect Zeus?
Via LNDHub to getalby.com Alby Account? What wallet is Account linked to - this isolated one via NWC or your 'main' one?
Zeus is connected to previous custodial alby setup. Maybe I should change Zeus to the new lndhub config?
Zeus doesn't support NWC yet. If your Alby Account is linked to your Hub (ie ()getalby.com lightning address redirects there, then Zeus should be able to read balance and act as wallet interface to your Hub, if those LNDhub credentials are correct.
Happy to jump on a cal.com/getalby to solve this or let's move to support@getalby.com
This looks promising,
Can any one DM an invite code? Much appreciated!
Are you gonna bring it to Umbrel?
