Alright here we go!
This is André Neves (@andreneves) and I'm the CTO and Co-Founder of ZEBEDEE where we build infrastructure and tools for gamers and game developers to power their virtual economies/points/rewards with Bitcoin.
🎮 Gamer? Get started earning Bitcoin playing games with the ZEBEDEE App for Android or iOS.
🧑🏻💻 Game Developer? Get in touch with us to get invite codes and API keys to power your game with Bitcoin!
I've also helped run the BitDevs NYC meetups for the past couple years, and most recently was involved in releasing the Lightning Address protocol that allows users to send and receive Bitcoin over Lightning using human-readable internet identifiers (aka emails).
I will be answering questions starting 2PM ET. I'll try to get to all of them.
Things I'm keen on talking about:
- ZEBEDEE (+ all of our many products)
- Lightning Address
- NYC BitDevs
- Bitcoin
- Lightning Network
- Lightning-powered video games
- LNURL
- Payment request orchestration systems
- Lightning Network node infrastructure
- Future of Payments
- Streaming payments
- Open standards / open networks
- Chaincode Labs
- ...more
Things I likely won't chat about:
- Crypto?
Let's make this fun!

the protocol on mainnet, is my understanding at least.payto:lightning@address.com
for example. I think it's possible, but SMTP is an established protocol and I'm not into the weeds of what would take to introduce changes. To be honest it just depends on how big (and how quickly) Bitcoin/LN get online. If the demand is there, there will be those building the user experiences that end-users expect of modern systems and platforms. I think it's more likely that an email client will adopt LN Address sending/receivingon the side
rather thanon the SMTP protocol
. But I'm not too into the weeds here like I said.3rd apps
to be honest. Is that3rd party apps
? Are you saying Wheel of Trivia has ads to get you to download other games?
