300 sats \ 4 replies \ @DarthCoin 4 Jul \ on: Best Alternative to LND Hub Accounts bitcoin
TOR is really slow and unreliable.
Yes, Tor is not suitable for LN nodes, especially for public ones. Why you do not use Tailscale to access your node? https://darthcoin.substack.com/p/tailscale-to-your-node
I believe LNBits uses LND Hub to function but I'm not 100% sure about that.
So you didn't read my guides about LNbits?
I really think LNbits is the best option for kids accounts. You give them some tokens in reality, but you are still in control of their funds. Kids could make mistakes with real LN wallets. So until they get it better a LNDHUB account is much better.
Now you can runm LNbits with phoenixd, server too
You can do it without LNbits if you just want a LN account on your node. Use directly the option for LN Accounts using Lightning terminal and you do not need to connect over Tor, just LNC: https://docs.lightning.engineering/lightning-network-tools/lightning-terminal/accounts
Alternative to LNbits you can use ShockWallet + LightningPub

Does LND Hub work over tailscale. I never got it working in Zeus. Its been a while but I recall reading that it doesn't work.

Thanks Darth. I'm an idiot. Tailscale does work with LND Hub. I'm not sure what I did wrong when I tried it before. Probably the wrong port.

Tailscale is your private connection to your node / lndhub account. The payment and stuff is done from your node later.

Right. I understand all that. And thank you for explaining. I read you guide and when I tried to use Tailscale I used the wrong port.
If someone else is trying to do this you need to use your TS IP for your node and the Blue wallet port on Umbrel.
