lightning-browser-extension VS boltz-backend

getalby.com gives you a LN address, but you have to create an account with them, which requires entering your email address.

If you don't have a bitcoin wallet yet, try https://getalby.com/ WIP, so feedback wanted! Let's make lightning the standard for funding open-source software. Lets orange pill all the devs, as devs run the world.

Or you can use Alby to throw in there. That’s what I use as my BlueWallet Lightning Wallet. Until BlueWallet comes back out with there Lightning Node. Alby works well!

getalby.com

lnbits.com or getalby.com allow you to use BlueWallet lightning wallet interface. They are custodial, so you could always use a different custodial lightning wallet or a non-custodial one instead.

I use Alby (http://getalby.com) as wallet and nip-07 extension. So I don't need to type My nsec anymore, just login with the browser extension

Who is your lightning node provider? BlueWallet did away with there node and left us to figure it out. (I think 🤔) but I use Alby and hit receive and it really doesn’t say “receive with amount” it just has a blue zero and your expected to type in your value. Then hit the “create invoice “ button. When I do this it generates the code and I tap it which copies it. I paste into breeez and it accepts it just fine. So like I ask… what are you using for the lightning wallet in side of BlueWallet? (Please don’t think I’m asking you in a dumb way either… I just found out how to get my lightning wallet up in BlueWallet literally 3 hours before I saw your post)

This would only be possible custodial unless you run an own lighting node. Regarding the cashout to onchain cold wallet you can loop out lightning to onchain with literally any lightning wallet if you use a 3rd party service such as https://boltz.exchange/ or any other service that does the same job. Swapping to onchain can also be done using muun wallet but of course all methods cost the mining fee on top.

watch-only are on-chain wallets, so it will not accept lightning. unless you use muun wallet (custodial by third party) You can create a lightning wallet in bluewallet either by having your own node or adding it from a third party, getalby is a lightning wallet that you can add to bluewallet. After adding the wallet, lightning breez should accept the transaction, to send lightning to watch-only(on-chain) you would have to convert it or pass it to on-chain, https://boltz.exchange either https://learn.robosats.com/ they work quite well to move lightning to on-chain, keep in mind the fees can be high.

Also, look into swap services like https://boltz.exchange and https://fixedfloat.com

Today we’re introducing automation to LiquidOps, an intuitive interface to automate tasks for your nodes with workflows - it’ll restore liquidity in your channels with https://boltz.exchange/ submarine swaps and let you sleep at night!

I use https://boltz.exchange/ to loop out my LN BTC. Works great and it's the cheapest/easiest solution I've found.

I use Robosats exclusively these days and it's easy to send to cold storage using Boltz. Bonus points for boltz because I can increase the inbound liquidity of my Lightning node by sending sats to cold storage with them. You can do the same process they use manually but I've found that the fees are higher and it's less convenient that way

Swap out to a specific address using a service like https://boltz.exchange
