NWC interoperability layer is growing so big it's getting harder and harder to fit everything in one ecosystem map 😅
In version 1.9 we have 9 additions, let's take a look! 🧵
Bitcoiners are still sleeping on @nwc_dev. It can connect your self-custodial LN wallet with apps and enable very real and practical use cases.
For example, we use NWC to:
- enable your Lightning wallet to spend Bitcoin wherever debit cards are accepted
- Sell Bitcoin via NWC
🚨 If you connected your NWC wallet to Bitcoin Quest, please rotate your connection (remove it inside your wallet and connect again) - your funds may be at risk
Security Notice
Alert to Nostr users who have signed into our app, Bitcoin Quest, using Nostr Wallet Connect (NWC):
A vulnerability has been exposed, and you should rotate your connection string secret by generating a new NWC URI from your wallet app.
This is a precaution
