Hey everybody!

There is now a webLN version of my Piggysats Wallet. Just head over to this link and sign in with your Alby wallet or other web extension wallet. The goal of these piggy bank fronts are to create savings tools for kiddos that are also fun and appealing to their cute little brains. This one should have the lowest barrier to entry to date!¹

It only grabs the transactions of certain types of wallets right now. I'm troubleshooting that, but in the meantime, it should be a safe way to look at your balance and make invoices. You'll need to manually put in your LNURL if you want to use the "Life Skills" textbook for a QRCode of your LNURL.

You can also:

use an LNBITS instance: https://bitcoin-piggy-bank.vercel.app
or host your own LNBITS version, which is a little more complicated: https://github.com/ttooccooll/Bitcoin-Piggy-Bank

especially for stacker news parents staring down the barrel of Nov 5th! ↩

This one will always be there waiting for you to sign in. All you need is a getalby wallet.

How do you put some SATs inside the piggy bank?

If you click the finance book, you can make invoices there. However, this is just a front for your getalby (or other webln) wallet. You’ll need to be signed in with that and all of the funds will actually go there.

Hi Piggy Sats,

Love your webLN bitcoin piggy bank concept! Would you be invested in creating a version of it for our open source LightningPiggy project? It's currently possible to view our piggy bank balance and transactions using LNbits web interface, in addition to the ESP32 hardware device, but it would be neat to present it as you have. Oink! Oink!
