This is an excellent addition to my discord server. Thank you very much for the experience

I really love the bot. Mainly because of LN support. Cause tip.cc already exists and I wouldn't have used this bot if not for LN.
If this bot also gets similar traction as tip.cc, that would also help LN grow. And that is really something I want to see.
I was thinking maybe this bot might now have LN-URL withdrawals, or maybe it can't generate a QR Code for depositing, but it seems to have both of those features.
Just 2 things if added would take it to a whole new level

DiscoPay bot is really a great tool that demonstrates how bitcoin on Lightning permeates further and further into everything!
There are three main features with DiscoPay:
Of course, there is also /deposit (generates an invoice for you to pay) and /withdraw (by paying the invoice you have pasted, or via LNUrl).
The Discord server run by the DiscoPay developer is where you can give it a try, as a member, or to get support. Only those with Manager server for that Discord server can add the bot for it.

I think in order for this to work, the chat platform itself needs to run on bitcoin.
We need to be able to pay for our servers with bitcoin too. Imagine if you can “boost” your server as well as tip in bitcoin.
I vaguely recall someone building a discord type thing on Nostr.
Discord has been the beneficiary of the network effect. Just like with replacing Twitter, it won't happen overnight.
honestly, i don’t think it’s network effect as much as just having a good product. bottom line is that discord alternatives are simply inferior in terms of UX

Imagine when DIscoPay adds Lightning Network support!
For Discord servers with DiscoPay bot, this will be the very first exposure to using and transacting in bitcoin for so many people who might not otherwise have ever touched bitcoin.
DiscoPay will be their first bitcoin wallet. Yes, I know ... custodial wallet, not your keys, etc., but with Lightning network transactions being ultra cheap, anyone can move funds (withdraw) beyond what they plan to use in the near term into their own wallet that has LN support.
Discord has 150 million monthly active users, of over 400 million registered users.

One can dream. I would work to add lightning support to discord in a heartbeat, given the opportunity.
For now, a simple bot is the best we can hope for.

The last link in that post (discord server:) responds "Invite invalid".
To join the Discord server to give DiscoPay a spin (as a member of that Discord Server), use the link from just above the line:

Oops sorry, the first invite link should work as well.
