Oddbean new post about login | logout ZEUS v0.9 will have BOLT 12 support for remotely connected Core Lightning nodes using the c-lightning-REST and CLNRest interfaces. We will also be providing BOLT 12 Lightning addresses in app, for free, courtesy our friends at https://twelve.cash/ More info on BOLT 12 here: https://bolt12.org/
What about lnd? Some similar solution? IMO something like lnc with a custodial account+lnurl would be amazing.
lmao, ofcourse I just got BTCPay server rolling with lighting addresses. All good, needed to learn. Hyped for Bolt12 for those who are not node running. ⚡ nostr:note1rv8dejpgcg7tkjrcr4ayzed98ettf4pwkaty26z76eqqr05n2slq5txx4g
What's a bolt 12 lightning address? No more lnurlp? 🤯
With those usernames, the experience should be much closer to Venmo or Cash App right?
Yeah, we keep pushing there. You already have a contact book, BOLT 11 Lightning addresses, and the ability to look up users via Nostr. Decentralized Venmo
What is the difference between BOLT 11 and 12 addresses?
One serves up BOLT 11 invoices w a web server, the other serves up BOLT 12 offers with a DNS server
do you have any resources on how bolt12 works technically? Preferable in words and not in code.
Rusty has a good post about onion messaging we just renoted yesterday, it is quite technical though
yes. thanks👍
i have yet to successfully make twelve.cash work. never fetches from my node
Can’t pay from the same node. Only a few wallets support BOLT 12 rn
maybe im mistaken but i thought twelve.cash made it possible any wallet that can pay an lnaddress could pay or needs to be from a wallet that supports bolt12? so when this feature rolls out, only other zeus users with cln backend can use the twelve.cash address to send to each other? i dont know of any other wallet that supports bolt12 payments.
