LNbits

Free and open-source lightning-network wallet/accounts system

Either use https://lnbits.com, or run your own LNbits server!

LNbits is a very simple layer that sits on top of a funding source. LNbits includes unique API keys for each wallet, so funds can be partioned to avoid explosure.

The wallet can be used in a variety of ways, an instant wallet for LN demonstrations, a fallback wallet for the LNURL scheme, an accounts system to mitigate the risk of exposing applications to your full balance.

The wallet can run on top of any lightning-network funding source such as LND, lntxbot, paywall, opennode, etc

Please note that although one of the aims of this wallet is to mitigate exposure of all your funds, its still very BETA and may in fact do the opposite!

LNbits as an LNURL-withdraw fallback

lnurl fallback https://github.com/btcontract/lnurl-rfc/blob/master/spec.md

Adding /lnurlwallet?lightning="LNURL-WITHDRAW" will trigger a withdraw that builds an LNbits wallet. An example use would be an ATM, which utilises LNURL, if the user scans the QR with a regular QR code scanner app, they will stilll be able to access the funds.
