Penyedia layanan tahu :<br/>- jumlah saldo kita<br/>- riwayat transaksi (waktu,jumlah dan tujuan)<br/>-IP addres <br/><br/>Kalau di ID ini saya pakai layanan npub.cash terkait LNurl nya. Sats akan otomatis masuk ke wallet cashu.me<br/><br/>Kelebihannya, saya punya ecash yang lebih privat jika spending ke ecash juga. <br/><br/>npub.cash ubah zap sats lightning jadi ecash (dikunci dengan npub kita).

This just requires a brief wallet setup and then copy/pasting a NWC connection string into the user's chosen client. This is probably the method supported by the widest variety of Nostr clients these days. Users can opt to use providers like Coinos, Rizful, or MiniBits, or Npub.cash.<br/><br/>Zeus is a bit of a hybrid. It starts out as custodial using ecash for new users who don't yet have enough sats to justify opening a Lightning channel, but it provides a Lightning address for receiving zaps. In my testing, it can be connected to Nostr clients for sending zaps using Nostr Wallet Connect, but this doesn't seem to work with the ecash balance, only once the user has set up a Lightning channel and have a balance available. That being the case, I would recommend one of the above options until they are ready to take on self-custody. </blockquote> 2026-05-31T01:58:27Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsf8eya9u4p0keqeahlxqdn7dz9rm4ss8av27jdpz9eqh77mwn3gggzyq03cnnstjxg3rr8urm0ee8l7zfzdw3x7a6sg0wj83t0j2q83yt5v9cnm3x In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs92zkdtwat9ypqcd5ex2y4j2ep5qv9395ckzj3gj7a9xlwjgsur6cmp0qpe'>nevent1q…0qpe</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Good catch.

For Nostr zapping purposes, the ideal of self-custody is overkill. However, as Bitcoiners we should always be encouraging people to move toward the ideal if they are capable of it, and not settle for using IOUs if they don't have to.<br/><br/>I use a self-custody wallet hosted on my own Lightning node, but I am one of those who enjoys tinkering with things and resolving technical issues when they come up. Most people aren't like that. They just want something to work, and if it doesn't, they want to have someone else they can blame for it and hold them accountable. </blockquote> 2026-05-30T01:09:20Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsrcsg4d4fwwh5rjt4ejcaf4pn2pp0l5rv038rta9way7d53m2dtcczyq03cnnstjxg3rr8urm0ee8l7zfzdw3x7a6sg0wj83t0j2q83yt5v9s5n32 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsy7ss7mget6n2vktjfqjtm5ute7nefjqhtrher0vem0593wsta2vc6frc7q'>nevent1q…rc7q</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>If zaps fail, I’d test two things first: is your lud16/LNURL visible on profile, and does a second client show the zap button?
