Lightning Address

A Lightning Address is a simple, human-readable address that you can use to receive payments over the Lightning Network. It looks like an email address (e.g., you@yourdomain.com).

How it Works

The Lightning Multitool handles the process of converting this address into a standard LNURL, which can be used by any compatible wallet to pay you.

Configuration

To set up your Lightning Address, you need to configure the following environment variables in your .env file:

  • DOMAIN: Your domain name (e.g., yourdomain.com).
  • USERNAME: Your desired username (e.g., you).

Once configured, your Lightning Address will be USERNAME@DOMAIN.
