Summary re Blixt Wallet (blixtwallet.github.io) discussion last night at weekly @BOBSpaces_BKK meetup: - Blixt works best on Android and functions abstractly as a private LND node (Neutrino node) on your phone. - Uses LND AEZEED mnemonics for wallet recovery key; gives familiar looking 24-word seed phrase. - Similar to Phoenix and Breez but lower abstraction level (meaning you can adjust more settings and see/customize the back end Lightning channel management more granularly). - Blixt has a pretty stable in-app Tor function, so don’t need separate Tor app like Orbot. Zeus LN needs to consider this. - Enabling Tor makes connecting private channels from your own Tor-only node a breeze. Pleb node runners normally run Tor-only nodes given that’s the default for node packages like Umbrel, myNode.btc, etc. - Blixt’s LSP inbound liquidity function, even in beta, looks much slicker than other wallets. - Blixt can be used as an additional tool to manage your node’s liquidity, if you know what you’re doing. - And very important, make sure to open only Private channels from your node to Blixt. As #[0] keeps repeating, Blixt isn’t meant to be a routing node, so shouldn’t have public channels. This would be a 4-5 part post on the birdie app. That's why #Nostr

Weekly #Bitcoin meetup in Bangkok tonight (and every Wed night 6:30 - 10:00 pm) https://twitter.com/BOBSpace_BKK/status/1628274272325210112?t=RIYlfyw0wQYzNQQPFo4kwA&s=19

Anyone ever considered incorporating BIP47 #PayNyms into Nostr for identity or key management? #[0] #[1] #[2] #[3] et al. The uniquely generated PayNym Bot per paynym.is seems interesting.

#[0] a few questions after enabling Tor in Blixt and opening inbound channel from my Tor-only node: 1) Why do I often receive ‘Failed Payment’ messages? Neither Muun nor WOS worked. 2) Do failed payments have to do with Tor, MPP, my node’s payment paths or all the above? 3) With Tor enabled in the Blixt app, do payments (out/in) prefer or prioritize Clearnet nodes/channels over Tor nodes/channels? These questions should probably be in DM but figured others may have similar questions. Any clarifications appreciated 🙏

What’s you favorite #Bitcoin  #Testnet mobile wallets? So far I like Blockstream ‘s #GreenWallet for iOS and #PadawanWallet for Android.

@dergigi 's 21-ways.com : Chapter 0 1st paragraph in Thai and illustrated.

For those on Android and haven't tried #Blixt wallet, do check it out. Excellent abstraction of running a 'private Lightning node' on your phone. And it's non-custodial (24-word BIP39 seed phrase).
