keysend is just using the node public key, you don't have to share anything secret that would endanger your node
Hey folks! Just released a new version of staddress-rs (deployed at https://satspay.to).
AFAK it's the only implementation that allows you to forward sats via keysend. No need to expose your wallet API, everything happens on lightning network :)
On the technical details 👉 since lightning address spec does not support keysend out of the box, an additional (lnbits) proxy is being used to 'convert' a lightning invoice and forward the recieved amount to a keysend address.
hey!
it lets you use the domains you own for the purpose of lightning address (https://lightningaddress.com). So, assuming you've got
cool-domain.com
and would like to use it in order to receive lightning payments at my-name@cool-domain.com
you could start the mentioned project and use it to set up that lightning address properly.If you like the
satspay.to
domain and would like to claim btc_ln@satspay.to
(for example) you can simply go to https://satspay.to/ in order to make that alias yours :) After that, all the payments that get sent to btc_ln@satspay.to
will land directly in your LND/LNbits wallet. In many cases it's just easier to memorize email-like address vs passing ln invoices/qr-codes aroundYou should be fine if you have your seed noted down. I had a SSD failure and it worked well (just took a bit of time) - you just need to wait for a full node sync and recover your wallet from the seed.
A new free and open source project enabling easy utilisation of owned domains for the purpose of lightning address
