 Since Ably is shutting down their custodial lightning ⚡️  wallet, I switched to using my nostr:nprofile1qqst4qyeqenw7zm0fwjsty68h6cnys5jre2xd8ngqpjv5a2j26s78fspzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujucm0d9hx7uewd9hj75a0pev account

#Zap me few #SATs to test if it's working properly

 
 Looks good from my self hosted alby hub! 
 😂🤣 
 Explain more! 
I use @Alby 
My wallet says getalby…47.., that one? 😃 
 They're discontinuing their custodial bitcoin wallet on Jan 3rd 
 This one? Sorry I’m late millennial 😉 👇 https://image.nostr.build/ed896b5c6cf55c8edcfdb95bd208d7341fa000bb0c8f4948c7fa87d5b097419d.jpg  
 Yes, that's the one

They want everyone to move to alby hub and self host

I don't keep enough in my wallet to justify a self hosting wallet

Maybe at some point down the line I will, but not today 
 Thank you!!! 
 They'll even kill legacy wallets that people currently have? 
 Yes, they're trying to minimize their corporate liability

Scared they'll get prosecuted, that's is my guess 
 just zapped you. did you get? 
 🤙 
 trying coinos now. i only see ecash as sending option. how do you enable an onchain withdrawal? 
 I'm not sure you can do on chain transactions, it's a custodial lightning wallet
https://boltz.exchange/ is a service that will allow you to swap lightning to onchain
 
 And vice versa 
 We do support on-chain sending and receiving in addition to lightning, e-cash, and Liquid. Swaps are done implicitly at the time of sending so no matter how you deposited you can send out over any of those methods and it'll just work. We charge 0.1% for all swaps. 
 Do you handle the conversion with SideSwap or Boltz?  
 Coinos supports on-chain transactions.
