Lightning Address creation
A few weeks ago I announced Lightning Addresses for everybody on Hive. The procedure to get one was a bit of a fiddle with going to a site and editing the URL.
No longer.
Directly from v4v.app you can jump to the Address tab, put in your Hive account name and you'll get your own image file.
You can download this unchanging image and use it wherever you like. Most Lightning clients now understand this type of address and any BTC Lightning sent to it will arrive in your Hive account seconds later.
And you can link
You can also directly link to the page: https://v4v.app/@brianoflondon and you can still get the raw image direct from my server if you want to put it on a web page: https://v4v.app/v1/lnurlp/qrcode/brianoflondon
Fixes
I fixed a few minor problems which people found: the service Tippin needed some fixes to work properly: it does now. I should point out however, that service is linked to your Twitter account. I had a Tippin account linked to my brianoflondon which I can no longer access! There are significant dangers of using a web identity you do not own.
Enhancements
I'm looking into the Lightning wallet browser plugin Alby. This is a really interesting bit of software that lets you have a Lightning wallet with some funds in directly in your browser. The @v4vapp gateway works well putting sats into your wallet and taking them out.
I'm going to work on tighter integration with Lightning WebLN standards that are going on in the background.
More Coming Soon!
There's lots more in the pipeline and I do hope that my proposal will be funded by the end of today when it goes live. I'm so grateful that I get to work on this stuff for the community and I am so thankful for all of you who have voted so far.

This is really awesome as everything turn out to be a success. Keep the good work @brianoflondon it's really awesome seeing this progress occur in the blockchain.
Didn't get to see the other posts but this is amazing. More achievement to come
WOW, this is incredible! This will probably end up replacing patreon for me since most people I know who want to tip me are into crypto anyway. I have a bunch of things to do this week but this is on my list!
You are one of the people building the railways for this new world of ours!
hope it gets funded, love your work! :)
Looking forward to having you on the show. It will be a great conversation I am sure.

Hello!
Nice work man. It is really appreciating.People of have must be helped by the program.I am awaiting you on the show.Thank you so much to bring it for people of hive.
Lightening netwlork on Hive with our own easy lightning addresses - sound good to me.
.....and there is more to come. Wow
I thought everyone should know about this - I shared your post on ListNerds.
Thank you for your work - brilliant.
I think I missed your last post. May I know what we can use the lightening account for?
Originally, his goal was to set up a way for podcasters to earn rewards from listeners. Lightning can stream Sats to your HIVE wallet. However, the same mechanism can be used to convert HIVE or HBD to Sats, which can be spent from your Lightning wallet. In a way, it's a bridge between Bitcoin and HIVE.
Ohhh Okay.. I get it now.
Thank you🙏

This is super awesome interesting integration on hive this will enhance fast transaction on hive blockchain.
I have heard of Lightning, but I have never used it, the truth is that what you say is good, thanks friend
Now testing it. Which one to choose? PNG file? Or SVG file? Sorry, totally clueless. It's my first time to try Lightning. Still doesn't know how it works.
Thanks!

Does it mean that I am getting a BTC address in Hive?
Where it shows BTC balance?
Lightning is built on top of BTC but it IS NOT a bitcoin address.
My system converts Lightning BTC into Hive. It also allows Hive or HBD to be converted to Lightning and sent to any Lightning wallet.
If you want to play around with small amounts of Lightning I recommend the Wallet of Satoshi app, it's a very easy starting point.
Thanks, so it is like "exchange" service , directly accessible through Hive.
is a game changer for everyone on HIVE!
Fantastic work and a terrific feature💯
