Frequently Asked Questions

Is this safe?

Very safe. LNURL-auth uses public key cryptography - the same technology that secures Bitcoin itself. Your wallet signs a unique challenge for each login. Your private keys never leave your device.

What if I lose my phone?

Your account is tied to your wallet's keys. If you have your wallet backup (seed phrase), you can restore it on a new phone and log in again. This is why backing up your wallet is important!

Can I use multiple wallets?

Each wallet has a unique identity. If you log in with a different wallet, you'll have a different account. Stick with one wallet for consistency.

Does this cost anything?

No! LNURL-auth is completely free. It doesn't send any Bitcoin - it just proves you own your wallet. There are no fees involved.

What data do you collect?

Only your wallet's public key (a random-looking string). We don't know your name, email, location, or anything else. That's the beauty of Bitcoin-native authentication.
