Alby v1.17.0: Improved LNBits and LNDHub Integration
The Alby browser extension provides deep Lightning Network integration for websites.
This release improves the LNBits integration and it is now possible to also see the incoming LNBits payments directly in the Alby Extension. This makes the Alby Extension now work perfectly with any lnbits account.
We now also have a special LNDHub connection flow for users who run their own LNDHub instances. This is additional to connecting your BlueWallet Lightning account.
