Last week, the Alby team got together to hack on what later may become part of our products 👇
1️⃣ Sparky Hub - a Spark-based and NWC-enabled bitcoin wallet
2️⃣ Auto-swaps for conveniently transferring funds between your lightning and on-chain balances in Alby Hub
3️⃣ A simple Value-for-Value RSS feed reader
Here is how it went: https://blog.getalby.com/alby-hackdays-sparky-hub-auto-swaps-more/
1️⃣ Sparky Hub is a NWC (npub19hg…yv9p)-enabled bitcoin wallet built on Spark using the Alby JS SDK and NWC relay. Connect with Alby Go, Alby Extension, or any NWC app. No channels required.
2️⃣ Auto-swaps: Set a threshold and let Alby Hub handle swaps from lightning to on-chain automatically. No more worrying about receiving capacity.
3️⃣ #V4V for everything, not just podcasts! A simple reader that pulls RSS feeds and lets you support creators via #BitcoinConnect. Vibe-coded in 30 mins without any line of code.
