Day 1 testing with external wallets in SN ๐Ÿงช

My setup: I connected with LN address with Blink for receiving and Nostr Wallet Connect for sending, here is my experience so far:

Receiving

Generally no problem, but
  1. It seems there were a few invoices that failed and said, "You didn't have enough sats." I assumed that was something happened with the wrapped invoice?
  2. Fee wise: 0
  3. There were some lagging with the withdrawals.

Sending

Here are a few problems:
  1. It's a bit slow, which indeed creates friction for zapping.
  1. Failed payment happened, maybe this would led to less zaps. ๐Ÿฅฒ
  2. Fee wise: 0
One interesting thing I noticed is that it will use the internal sats to zap first if there are enough sats, so it would be the same using cowboy credit first?

I have connected Blink Wallet for receiving, too. It works very well!
But I cannot connect a wallet for sending because I cannot afford any of the options listed there.
@k00b @ek is it possible to connect to a LN address even for sending? It will be helpful for non-tech guys like me.
Why cannot be the same LN address for both receiving and sanding?
Probably these are naive questions for the tech-stackers here, but...

LN address can't be used for sending, it's technically just a way to request an invoice but it doesn't include a way to pay invoices.

OK. I understand.
But which is the easiest way for sending?
reply
I assumed it works both ways if SN have the option to link Blink's API? ๐Ÿ‘€

did you try with Nostr Wallet Connect? it's really simple to set it up, all you need is an Alby account.

I do not have access to Albi yet. I have sent them several times a request to create an account, but had no response from them.
