Like 50 people told me to sort out getting a Lightning address on my profile last night, so I went down that rabbit hole. I think I got it working with npub.cash. Still feeling a bit lost, this is kind of like discovering the internet in the mid 90s for the first time again for me 😂


I zapped you 21 sats and it didn't show in my alby that it went through.


:wooshzap:


It seems like it's working, some have already showed up 😅


Weird, it still has not subtracted the 21 sats from my wallet. But I'm on mobile with tor, so maybe it's just being slow.

hello, welcome 💜⚡🤙


The best part is you can explore different types and pick the one that you like the best. I’ve probably used 8-10 so far. You can use different ones for sending and receiving, and send balances between them. Once you learn about self custody, the real journey begins.


FWIW strike is the simplest way to get this going — goes right into your balance then have a free option for cold storage

I run a lightning node but for simplicity still opt for using centralized services with periodically moving things over to self custody


Welcome to the jungle! 🤣

I have an nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm invite if you want to try it. Alby integrates tightly with nostr and many other bitcoin services.


So true 🤣 but that’s why most of us are here.


Enjoy some generational wealth

If your nip-05, email and lnaddress are all the same I want to follow you.


Yeah, that would be awesome!

Will do! It asks for an email address to send the invite to. Feel free to DM it if you don’t want to post that publicly.

Yet Crypto is over a decade old... sad.


Can you expand more on what you mean by this?


Thanks for the recommendation. I actually just went ahead and decided to set up the Alby wallet for now since I got an invite yesterday.


A decade is 100 years in technology and we still haven't made things simple.


No problem. Have fun out there. 🤙
