Sending on Mutiny just got a lot more social: you can now search your contacts (and global nostr users) when sending! There's a lot that changed in this release so let us know what you think.
Expect to see more like this in the future!

New version of Mutiny (v0.5.1) just released which improves a lot of functionality with Fedimint. Thank you to all the testers so far!
Now that Fedimint v0.2.1 is officially released, you may spin one up and start testing yourself too.

We are excited to announce today that Fedimint 0.2 has landed! ๐ฌ
This release is a huge milestone for Fedimint as it is now a mostly feature-co...
Ending the year off strong!
Over the last few months, we've been preparing our wallet for Fedimint integrations. Today marks the first release with Fedimint support ready for alpha testing!
Fedimint is software for managing federated custodian funds. It's similar to the trust model of Liquid but better privacy and without a blockchain involved. It also has first-class support for Lightning.
The way we've gone about the integration is to seamlessly smooth over the edges that exist in self-custodial Lightning. Our hybrid approach will use a configured Federation when needed. Otherwise, it uses self-custodial Lightning if it exists for the user. This helps things like channel reserves, channel minimums, high chain fees to get started, etc.
You may add a Federation alongside your existing wallet or start with one without needing to open channels or pay on-chain costs. We recommend keeping the value low since this is a very early release, and there are some known features that we still need to develop.
It should feel and act like the same Mutiny Wallet with some caveats around backups for now.
A massive shoutout to the Fedimint team for their recent v0.2 release. It's still early for them and us, so all testing and feedback is welcomed! This does rely on having a federation invite code. We suspect that, over the next few weeks and months, more mainnet federations will pop up. There is not a default one built into the wallet.
We should also have Lightning Address support in a few weeks that works through federations. Kody has already started that work, and it seems promising:
Also, there's beginning work on supporting the Lightning Service Provider Specification, which will eventually allow more plug-and-play support for any LSP to power Mutiny. This will be huge for more advanced node runners as the spec matures. Huge shoutout to John Cantrell for that work.
A lot of core infrastructure has been built into this release. Let us know if there are any problems; it should be identical to previous versions if you do not configure a Fedimint or different LSP.
Expect much more to come soon. Happy new year!

There's going to be some maintenance by our LSP provider tonight. Payments may fail and lightning invoices may not generate unless you've opened channels with other nodes on the network.
Mutiny is releasing Nostr Wallet Auth (NWA) today!
NWA provides a better and more secure way to connect using Nostr Wallet Connect. To showcase this it has also been implemented in Zapple Pay for you to try it out.
Checkout our demo here or our blog to learn more:

One step wallet connect with Nostr Wallet Auth
"Nostr Wallet Connect Connect" was too confusing.
