https://v4v.app/ "acts a Bitcoin Lightning Wallet for Hive," according to the v4v website blurb. It connects the Hive blockchain to the Bitcoin Lightning Network, making it super easy to send and receive Bitcoin instantly, with low fees. If you have a Hive account, you can access it right away by logging in with Keychain - no extra setup needed. The best part is, you don’t even have to swap HIVE or HBD for Bitcoin manually - V4V handles that for you on the fly. That means you can spend your HIVE or HBD directly at any shop that accepts Bitcoin via the Lightning Network, making it a seamless bridge between the two ecosystems. You can also store your BTC sats on the Hive blockchain with a V4V wallet.
V4V is also an option for Hive bloggers to get paid in Bitcoin through the One Bitcoin Club, and that is what I am going to test by publishing THIS post in the One Bitcoin Club community via the OneBitcoinClub.org front-end.
Before writing this post, I pasted by V4V lighting address into the settings inside my OneBitcoinClub account.
The crazy thing is... if this works, this post will earn BTC and it will also earn 50/50 HP and HBD ... you don't earn BTC instead of Hive tokens, but in addition to them! It's a whole extra layer of earning power. Wham bam, satoshi man!
And now... here goes!
Cheers!
It did work... :-) I saw your payment go through
Thank you for the heads-up @brianoflondon - and for creating the V4V app. I just saw the payment in my V4V wallet. Awesome!

It is time to stake your satoshi.
1M satoshi stored is my target.
Peace
Go go go! 1m sats is a great target. Let's hope you get a big bunch of them before Bitcoin hits new highs!

That would be excellent indeed if V4V works with the One Bitcoin Club! I must say, you're definitely tempting to go through the process of setting things up with OBC! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

OneBitcoinClub - I haven't heard of this one. I'd like to know more about how it works, how secure it is and what's under the hood.
