Looking for BTC/lightning QR that can generate new addresses for each tx

357 sats \ 13 comments \ @2bithits 30 Jan 2023 bitcoin

I'm looking to do a bit of busking soon. It would be ideal to have a couple of QR codes on display, one for BTC & one for lightning.

So I'm looking for a wallet that can display a kind of "master" QR code to generate a new BTC address each time someone sends a tip. Preferably one that can do both on chain & lightning.

Bounty goes to the best suggestion.

bip21 covers both bitcoin and lightning in 1 QR code but not all wallets support it yet. your best bet is have a lightning address + lnurl printed for LN. Use something simple like satspay plugin on lnbits or worst case a static bitcoin address.

I have been looking at BIP21 & am kinda wondering why this isn't supported across all wallets? It would really make bitcoin a lot more user friendly

For Lightning: LNURL is a good solution. On Chain: https://paynym.is/about

Yes... It came to me a few minutes after posting unfortunately

LNPoS. Simple point of sale that supports lightning and on-chain payments.

It can generate a new address every time:

Use an xPub to generate a fresh address for every payment.

Its been a while, time to pay the bounty.

I think I might have to increase it next time to get some more responses.

What I'm looking for is a static QR code for onchain & one for lightning that can be printed out and put on display while I busk.

Some suggestions that are good ideas but we are perhaps too early are BIP21, paynyms and lnurl.

Paynyms and lnurl only work if you already have one. It needs to be the most basic & usable for most if not all wallets.

Bip 21 would be AMAZING! This should be a priority across all wallets to integrate.

So for lightning Zeus does have a static QR which I found here:

As for onchain, I found evidence of btcpay (which i was surprised no one suggested) also being able to print out a static QR here:

So thanks for your responses. The bounty goes to darthcoin for introducing Zeus albeit in a brief way.

Zap Wallet: A Lightning Network wallet that supports QR codes and generates a new address for each transaction.

Blue Wallet: A mobile wallet for Bitcoin and Lightning that also supports QR codes and generates a new address for each transaction.

c-lightning: An implementation of the Lightning Network that also generates a new address for each transaction. You can use QR codes with this software, but it is intended for more advanced users.
