Hi! Can I create my own lightning address using phoenix wallet? I have my own domain and VPS but no node. All the tutorials I have seen require setting up a node. Can it be done without it?

Hi! Can I create my own lightning address using phoenix wallet? I have my own domain and VPS but no node. All the tutorials I have seen require setting up a node. Can it be done without it?
I'm not sure. I've been using nodeless.io as I'm not super tech-savvy. So instead of my LN address being myname@abccorp.com, it's abccorp@nodeless.io
How's that working out for you? I'm trying to orange pill a low tech business and nodeless might be the way to go.
Super simple. I've really been enjoying it however, I don't have a tonne of interest from clients in paying via Lightning.
I'm not a dev, so aside from running a node, I feel it is my duty to USE Bitcoin wherever I can, to support the network.
Zaplocker.com gives you a lightning address without a node and without the server having custody. But you'll have to set up a lightning address forwarder if you want it to use your own domain.
A guide for you here with all info about LN address https://darthcoin.substack.com/p/getting-started-lightning-address
No. Phoenix is not providing such option, but still is providing a LNURL, that is more or less the same as a LN address.
Is there perhaps an alternative to phoenix that is self custodial and has the ability to create an ln address? I want to have a permanent address instead of generating lnurl every transaction
Did you read the guide I just sent you? All the info there, all the options, all types
I have read and the only options I have are:
Yes. You understand correctly.
I think will better for him to use bitcoinfax as LN address ๐๐๐
Mofo, don't give me ideas.
could be very interesting
I will repeat read the introduction part of the guide and ask yourself https://darthcoin.substack.com/p/getting-started-lightning-address#%C2%A7why-you-should-use-different-types-of-ln-addresses
That is the most important question your should ask yourself.
Ok, so I should just use ln address from custodial wallet to accept public payments and then transfer to my private wallet?
read again, you missed a lot.
another option is lnbits but it is expensive
I gave you all the options available, but I see that you still struggle to understand the basics facts that I explained in the beginning of the guide. Please read again and THINK.
most of the above options require their own node to generate invoices
I guess that the part after the @ depends on the provider.
For example, in Coinos.io you can create your LN address and it will be: in my case criptopanas@coinos.io or in Stacker News username@stacker.news....and so on.
