Got some stats for you on LN Wallet Logins vs Email.

This is what we have on our production site so far: 94 users (36 emails, 58 lnurl-auth)

So the authentication with LN Wallet is big on the Bitcoiner side, just because we've already been oranged pilled🍊💊 and we are now more concerned about privacy and giving out personal information, so the majority will authenticate via their wallet to send someone bitcoin.

For the receiver side, since they don't know anything about Bitcoin they will authenticate via email, we send the magic link to log in and we also want to add the option to do phone # to do SMS 2FA. The goal is for the nocoiner to feel comfortable enough after downloading a wallet to start login in with it!

Also, the project is only 3 weeks old 🐣 so not much data we can look at, we just added an admin dashboard a few days ago and are starting to come up with the type of reports, metrics and KIPs we can add, so I sure will be asking for us to add # of users authenticating via LN Wallets and # of users authenticating via email!

And for the 2nd part, yes as of right now anyone with the link can snatch your sats! One thing to remember is that we built the web app for bitcoiners to be able to tip/gift people in person, so the user flow would be, I fund an LN Invoice and show the person the QR Code so they can scan it and claim the funds right away. Now with the links just like I shared with you above, yes anyone can click on them and claim those sats. So we might introduce a functionality where the landing page could be password-protected or something along those lines!

Thanks for those two points!🎉
