corndalorian on Nostr: If you’re new and not sure how to set up lighting tips on your profile, you need ...

If you’re new and not sure how to set up lighting tips on your profile, you need Lighting Address or a LNURL, not a lightning invoice. Here’s the difference:

1) Lightning Address looks like an email address. For example, mine is corndalorian@ln.tips.

2) LNURL is a reusable code others can use to send you sats. You’ll recognize it because it begins with the letters “lnurl…” followed by a long string of characters.

3) Lightning invoices begin with “lnbc…” and are one time use ONLY. They also have an expiration. Don’t put these in your profile settings.

Here are a couple of my favorite wallets to use in your profile because of their support for Nostr features. They’re custodial so only keep small balances on them:

💜 Lightning Tip Bot ( https://LN.tips )
💜 Wallet of Satoshi
💜 Alby

Ask questions if you’re not sure how to use these. People here are eager to help you get things setup and will probably even send you a few sats to get you started.
