LNURLp

Create a static QR code people can use to pay over Lightning Network

LNURL is a range of lightning-network standards that allow us to use lightning-network differently. An LNURL-pay is a link that wallets use to fetch an invoice from a server on-demand. The link or QR code is fixed, but each time it is read by a compatible wallet a new invoice is issued by the service and sent to the wallet.
