A lightning wallet is similar to a bitcoin wallet only itβs on the second layer of Bitcoin.
A lightning wallet can be hosted by your own note or it can be hosted by a trusted node. Once you have a Bitcoin, lightning wallet, you can obtain a Bitcoin lightning address.
If you put this address into your Nostr account, you can receive bitcoin payments directly over Nostr!
try looking that up...
in the meantime u can use wallet of Satoshi blink
GM Daniel- lightning is a L2 (layer 2) on the Bitcoin (L1β¦ Internet L0) network. Lightning is like the name, super fast for transactions of smaller amount(s). A 100m satoshis is equal to 1 Bitcoin (1 BTC). Zaps are Nostr satoshis. People can Zap you Sats (satoshis) for a note they might like or value (music, art, a picture, specific information, etc). Have a good day!
I just zapped you 21 sats from CoinOs lightning wallet ππ€β‘ Set up a lightning wallet using an email address and then transfer some sats to it. You can login with a browser extension/nostr key. Primal has a built in wallet, you can also use Wallet of Satoshi. NWC wallets are easier and work better.
I use Alby and connected CoinOs to it so I can easily login to different nostr clients and apps - just copy the wallet string you're good to go ππ
This is really chaotic. I would recommend refining your pitch to noobs.
A Lightning wallet is a fancy Bitcoin wallet designed for small amounts and fast payments.
A zap is a Bitcoin Lightning payment over Nostr.
