Nostr using Primal was my first interaction with a Lightning wallet. As someone who’s not very technically inclined, it always seemed complicated. But now, after using Lightning, why would anyone want to use anything else?

Makes it so nice when going out to eat with Bitcoin friends. Someday the rest of my friends will have it.

Try to use non custodial and then you will know why 👀😅🤣

Switch back to ZEUS after you hit send in Cash App. If you’re receiving via an invoice, ZEUS has to be open to accept payment.

I'll tell ypu why. Because BCH makes Lightning look like what it is, a mirror of the current banking sysyem. Still in Alpha, but getting Pump'd may be easier and more fun than learning about lightning nodes, waiting for onchain fees to drop low enough to do whatever monkey business needs to be done to get on LN, and finally Zapping. #1 all on layer 1! BCH on NOSTR
i think i need learn more about how lightning works >< i send 10,000 sats to zeus but it seems only 100 sats webt through
The first Lightning receive has a set up fee to open a channel to you. The fee is displayed above the invoice QR. Subsequent receives do not have this set up fee, until you max out the capacity of your channel.
i figured it out! i was able to load up my wallet. can you link me some material to fully understand it? i was able to load up via Olympus by Zeus. sorry im a newbie 😅
The Lightning network gave an unknown value in the minds of the unfamiliar; that it is difficult to return to the Zero Mark. Albert Einstein was very right about that! “The mind that opens up to a new idea will never return to its original size” View quoted note →
