Congrats! This is huge. Wanted to pass on some feedback from my first gifting.

From the receiver’s viewpoint, the first thing they see on the “you have been gifted some sats” page is the amount in the upper left corner. At first, the amount of sats was there with a “~$0” below it which the receiver found confusing. After maybe 5-10 seconds the correct dollar amount showed up when the exchange rate was fetched. A better experience would be to not show any exchange rate until it was ready, I.e show nothing instead of $0, then have the fiat equivalency show up when it is ready.

It would be great if the gift giver had the option of paying the setup fee for the receiver. In the current situation, the receiver sees the total amount given in the upper left corner of the “you have been gifted some sats” page , and then after they claim, they see a smaller amount in their wallet (minus ~10,000 sats). I’d love to take that fee on my end, so when they see the gift amount, that’s the same amount they’ll see in their balance after claiming.

Keep up the great work!

Great work!

You no longer have to instruct a new user to "download X wallet in the app store.. sorry, that's spelled with two u's, no not that one, yes okay download and wait a few minutes, now click receive, now input 50,000 sats, now show me a QR code."

This hits home so hard 😂

Maybe this has been answered/is obvious but the user still has to receive a minimum necessary to open a channel correct?

Yeah, they still need to receive a minimum of 50k sats (like $15).

Once we have fedimint support (gonna be awhile) then we can get rid of that requirement

Fediment the protocol? In which way does fediment solve the issue?

reply

We'll make it so when the user doesn't have enough for a real lightning channel, it'll go into a fedimint and the user can then decide when they want to go full self custodial

Great, but: "You have been gifted some sats" will confuse. Nocoiners don't know what "sats" are. Should be: "You have been gifted Bitcoin".

nope, bits the standard.

normies will never use "sats"

serious businesses will say "bitcoin"

Then we will pitch them to freaks

serious businesses will say "bitcoin"

Then we will shop at silly businesses

This is an awesome way to onboard new users and the non custodial edge is a winner
