πŸš€ Excited to share my project for the NWC @Geyser Hackathon Grant: Nostrpay! A playful, parent-controlled Bitcoin Lightning wallet based on Nostr Wallet Connect (NWC), designed for kids to learn, save, and spend sats safely and with a smile. Learn more at and
Just now, I asked my little sister to download and try the Skibidi Wallet: She downloaded it, got to the in-game intro of wallet creation β€” and got stuck. She did not noted down the mnemonics. Then she paused and asked me: β€œWhy do I have to write down these random words? I just want to move forward.” She got a bit frustrated, but went ahead β€” for me, after I told her to write them down as this is part of the game. After that, without any help, she created an invoice and told me to pay. The receive worked, but the wallet balance update took time. She stared at me and said: β€œThis is fake. Why isn’t my balance showing?” The transaction history showed up instantly, but the balance took 1–2 minutes to reflect. Eventually, I sent her an invoice for 50 sats. She scanned it and paid it. Then came the next one that hit hard: β€œWhy do I lose money every time I send or receive? Why is there a fee everytime? Who would even use this?” And finally, the knockout question: β€œOkay, now what? What can I actually do with this Bitcoin? Can I buy anything in a shop?” I had no answer.
Let's Make Bitcoin Lightning-Fast! ⚑ πŸš€ Hang tight because we're diving into the exciting world of the Lightning Network! 🌐 Have you ever wondered how to make Bitcoin transactions faster, more scalable, and more private? Well, that's where the Lightning Network comes in. ⏳ Back in 2015, two brilliant minds, Joseph Poon and Thaddeus Dryja, introduced the Lightning Network to tackle Bitcoin's scaling issue. πŸ’¨πŸ’° Think of the Lightning Network as a second-layer technology. It helps handle transactions off the main Bitcoin blockchain, making them quicker and more cost-effective. It's like the Flash of microtransactions! βš‘πŸ’Έ Now, here's the cool part: Users put their Bitcoins on the Lightning Network and only interact with the main Bitcoin blockchain when they open or close payment channels. The result? Lightning-fast payments that don't wait for confirmations! 😎 But there's more! The Lightning Network has some awesome features. And remember, the Lightning Network isn't a separate coin or token; it's built on top of Bitcoin. πŸ”₯ Are you curious to learn more about this exciting world? Want to discover how to build your very own Non-Custodial Bitcoin Lightning wallet? Join me on this journey! #Bitcoin #LightningNetwork
