Hey stackers, new here.

I'm trying to set up my send wallet. In the wallet section it is saving my Blink API, and it also is giving me the green send arrow in the blink box, but I don't have my gun indicating something is wrong. I do show this error in the logs:

POST https://api.blink.sv/graphql: 401

sorry, this is confusing, but you need to also enable device sync in your settings for the gun

@ek ok i've done it! Thank you. I'm still a bit confused with the cowboy credits. Can I choose which to zap you with? CC or sats?

reply

btw, looks like receiving at least works

I zapped you 100 sats, you should have received 70.

reply

I've tried to zap you twice now but it gives the sats to your post then they quickly go away. I must be doing something wrong.

Do you still get this error in your wallet logs?

POST https://api.blink.sv/graphql: 401

If so, I think your API key is wrong.

Did you select the READ and WRITE scope when generating the one for sending?

Sending and receiving must be two different API keys.

I think i'm all set now thanks a lot @ek

When you zap and you have a wallet, we will always try sats first. If your wallet doesn't work, then we will try CCs.

If you don't want to zap sats, disable your wallet.

Reading the FAQ about the wallets might also help if you haven't already.

Sweet thanks I will work on this later today. I will wait to zap you so I can hopefully send you some sats instead of cowboy credits. Are the cowboy credits we get and send stuck on SN forever? we can't withdraw them or pay LN invoices with them?

Welcome

For problems like this, you want to get @ek's attention.

Thank you!

CCs are just fine for SN

What is the difference between a CC and a heart or a thumb?

CCs are simply credits to be used inside SN (pay to post), bought with sats. That's all.
