how do I convert the old Cowboy credits to sats? Or is that not possible?
you can trade with users like me
The whole point of cowboy credits is that they can't be converted, because otherwise it'd be money transmission and would have to KYC everyone.
So instead, we do our best to make noncustodial stuff work, and when it fails we fallback to CCs.
Your CCs will get spent fast if you're commenting/posting/zapping a lot. When you spend, and there's no reason to use sats, we use CCs first automatically.
for some reason my zaps are still coming from my Alby account, not CCs.
and there's no reason to use sats
If the receiver can receive sats (horse by name), you'll send sats (from alby in your case) so that they receive sats. The portion of a zap that goes to the rewards pool (30%) will come from CCs if you still have CCs left.
Zaps are the one exception to "we use CCs first automatically," because we all want to zap and be zapped sats.
thanks!
I won't get to this today, but I should be able to deploy a workaround for Alby's bug by the end of tomorrow.
If the situation is urgent, you should be able to workaround it yourself by using NWC to receive (by creating a separate NWC string with only receive permissions). If it can wait until tomorrow, I will be dedicating my day to fixing it.
