I have recently been trying out Braiins - are they based in China?

They are based in Europe.

Thanks for that good to know. I would like to know more about them as it makes it very easy to receive payments via LN. Heard Ocean you need a special LN wallet but with Braiins I can use Coinos.

You’re welcome. Yes, you need to configure a BOLT12 offer to receive Lightning payouts on OCEAN.

I have no idea whether Coinos can configure to BOLT12, and if so, how. Why have Ocean made it more difficult where Braiins make it so easy to get LN payment? I just gave them a my LN address and Bingo- it works.

Yep, simplicity is key

I think OCEAN went the BOLT12 route for increased user privacy.

Even though it’s meant to be configured with a CLN node, there’s a middleground to get it working with Coinos. I wrote a guide here.

Prior to this, I was doing Braiins Lightning payouts and, I agree, it was very simple.
