We’re working on an experimental open source LNURL server that you can create a lightning address using a permissioned NWC connection secret. It’s not quite ready yet (Missing NIP-05 and zapper functionality) but it’s here: https://github.com/getalby/lite

Hi, unfortunately we don’t have a MyNode package yet. We’d be happy for help! There’s an open issue on the Alby Hub GitHub repository

Thanks! It’s hard to make custom permissions for isolated apps right now which is what this uses, but I have a PR to improve it which will hopefully be in the next version of Alby Hub.
This app isn’t in the hub (I don’t think it makes sense there) but it’s open source. https://github.com/rolznz/satparity

I made this currency sat parity checker 99% with AI: https://rolznz.github.io/satparity/

We are 19% on the way through "The Sattening"

Just this week, bitcoin achieved sat parity and then surpassed the South Korean Won. Today 1 sat = 0.95 KRW.
I'm going there for the first time a few days before I head to El Salvador. Any bitcoiners in Incheon?

We sent out an email to cloud subscribers on Monday to give you two days notice that an update was required and you could update beforehand to avoid disruption.
Unfortunately in rare cases there are urgent updates that we must do, and that requires unlocking afterwards. We hope this should decrease in frequency going forward - Alby Cloud is still a new product.
Because it is a lightning node running in the cloud, it must be unlocked after an update so it can start the node. You don’t need the browser open - just for Alby Hub to be unlocked.
We plan to add an option to disable automatic updates of important security updates. But also, if you have any suggestions on how we can improve, please let us know!

You probably have to use the bc-pay-button instead and add the preimage attribute once you receive a payment. https://github.com/getAlby/bitcoin-connect?tab=readme-ov-file#components
The bitcoin connect dev tools have an example of this (polling for an external payment and then setting the preimage to update the button)

The app implementing Bitcoin Connect needs to poll the invoice to check for external payments. What app was this?

People should take responsibility if their own money for sure. I think there’s a path to running your own hub and the first experience of using lightning should have as few hurdles as possible

2024-09-04 14:16:25

Today Alby Hub 1.7.2 was released which includes a new Friends & Family app for quickly onboarding (you guessed it) your friends and family to bitcoin and lightning, powered by your hub's liquidity. They get a wallet without having to understand lightning or have their own channels, and not rely on large custodial services. They can get their own lightning address with an Alby Account, or connect their new wallet to the Alby extension, or very soon connect to Alby's new mobile app, Alby Go.
I'd love to jump on a call with anyone who would like to test the Friends & Family app or Alby Go, or just hear any feedback in general if you try it on your own! feel free to DM!

Simply sign up as you would for a paid relay, except instead of paying you'd give a budgeted NWC connection. The relay would do a small charge to your wallet whenever you post.

Alby Hub just implemented subaccounts! Alby Hub runners can easily run a custodial "Uncle Jim" service and provide instant wallets to new Lightning and Nostr users, and these wallets are powered by the amazing open protocol, Nostr Wallet Connect - which works in all environments, for both custodial and self-custodial wallets.
These Uncle Jim services can be queried from any Nostr app, and wallets with a lightning address and podcasting 2.0 support can be created instantly from a single API call and be plugged into existing apps for instant wallets - Damus, Amethyst, Nostrudel, Stacker News, Habla News, WavLake, Yakihonne, Highlighter, Bringin, BTCPayServer, Coracle, Freerse, Lume, Wherostr, Zappdit, More Speech, Nostter, Nostur, Snort, Yana, Zap.Stream, Alby Extension, Alby Account, Alby Mobile, Vortex, Spring Browser, and more.
Would you run a public Uncle Jim service on your Alby Hub or add instant wallets to your app and help onboard new users to bitcoin, nostr and value 4 value?
