Tooling & Building with LNbits - lnbits/lnbits GitHub Wiki

This very cheap off the shelf nostr signing device is designed to work with Lilygos Tdisplay, but you can easily make it work with any ESP32.

Data is sent to/from the Signing Device over webdev Serial, not the most secure data transmission method, but x1000 better than storing the privatekey on a computer. Clients could support sending to the device directly, but using is Nos2X is far more convenient.

Build your own lightning powered arcade console games machine using the LNbits bitcoinSwitch with this kit from the LNbits shop or build your own.

Gerty will keep you updated on all things related to the Bitcoin network. Gerty is connected to your own LNbits or the demo LNbits instance and displays what you configured it to show in the Gerty extension. Gerty can run from it’s internal battery or can be powered via a USB-C connection and will update at regular intervals chosen by also you. You can get the kit from the LNbits shop or build your own or build your own.

The ATM has two versions, one for coins only and one for coins + papershitcoins.

Coins only ATM: This is a do-it-yourself project consisting of a mini-computer (Raspberry Pi Zero), a coin acceptor, a display, a 3D printed case, and a Bitcoin Lightning wallet as a funding source. It exchanges fiat coins for valuable Bitcoin Lightning ⚡ Satoshis.

The user can pick up the Satoshis via QR code (LNURL-withdraw) on a mobile phone wallet. It works with LNbits as well based on BTCPay server, LNTXBOT is not longer an option. You can get the components as individual parts and build the case yourself e.g. from Fulmo who also made a guide on it. The code can be found on the ATM github project page and needs to be run with the extension LNURLdevice->POS.

Big (FOSSA) ATM : The Fossa needs to be run with the extension LNURLdevice->ATM. Please be aware that the Fossa ATM uses another code base. Black Coffee made a nice enclosure for the Fossa ATM

The LNpos is a self-sufficient point of sale terminal which allows offline onchain payments and an offline Lightning ATM for withdrawals. Free and open source software, free from intermediaries, with integrated battery, WLAN, DIY. You can get the 3D print as well as the whole kit from the LNbits shop or build it from your own hardware. It allows:

• LNPoS Online interactive Lightning payments
• LNURLPoS Offline Lightning Payments. Passive interaction, sharing a secret as evidence
• OnChain For onchain payments. Generates an address and displays a link for verification
• LNURLATM Offline Lightning Payouts. Generates LNURLw link to do withdrawals

The hardwarewallet is a very cheap solution for builders. The projects´ code and installation instructions for the LNbits hardware wallet can be found on github.

Candy dispenser, vending machines (online), grabbing machines, jukeboxes, bandits and all sorts of other things have already been build with LNbits tools. Further info see 👇 Ressources.

Some notes on the beertap: Since the esp32 does support LNURLw so plain NFC links but doesnt support boltcard NFC yet we suggest setting up your beertap on a raspberry pi from Hannes or this code from Satoshi Radio instead, if you would like to support this payment method as well. It not only offers a display but has some libraries ready for extended NFC support. For a smaller and cheaper version pls see the PlebTap version explained in detail in 👇 Ressources

This code works similar to the LNpos. Note that the setup-video for the vending machine misses the new way of installing it via the new LNURL devices extension. The vending machine project code resides on github.
