kaloudis just announced @ZEUS no longer requires you run a separate lightning node ๐Ÿซก - embedded node on your phone - no channel management necessary - self custody as expected - users will be prompted at first start if they want to connect to an existing remote node or create a new wallet image

Does it mean Zeus will have their own node with private channels?
Can we start dumbing down the announcements a little more for plebs. Devs canโ€™t keep up but understand new things, us mere plebs have zero chance to keep up and understand. So is this making it like Mutiny and also I do not understand things there too.

How awesome is that. No channel management, because of splicing? Or how does it work? ...bullish ๐Ÿซก
Is next year going to be another lightning event in july? I can't keep missing these things, need to do better planning.

When I start @ZEUS it still just give me the option to connect to my own node / scan the node configuration. So which version are we talking about? Doesnโ€™t see this feature by now.
Sorry guys, what are the main advantages of this new functions ? I do have a Phoenix wallet, but what will be the use case for this update, not to have a connected node ? Sorry, Just trying to understand ! ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป
essentially same usecase as phoenix now I assume, but maybe someone who knows more can do a phoenix vs zeus comparison
does this post / note / tweet really has only 3 โ€˜likesโ€™ / surfer sign?? or is it nostr that does not count them all for me?
Bullish! But not sure about the embedded node approach tho... from using Breez/Blixt etc. it puts a lot of load on the phone Would be interesting to see a Breez SDK integration land here as well

Ah ok. Using your app via TestFlight. Thought I missed something ๐Ÿ˜‚
I also was concerned about load issues on my 3 years old phone with Breez and went for Phoenix instead. Super good enough for me.
Weโ€™re launching our own LSP Olympus but youโ€™ll have the ability to swap between a few
thank you for the reaction. somehow the โ€˜likesโ€™ are not really โ€˜liveโ€™.
