"We're pleased to announce public test releases of ShockWallet and Lightning Pub," announced Justin of Shocknet, a project behind lightning.video platform.
"As a continuation of the work we started during Legends of Lightning and NostrHack Hackathons, we've resumed work on ShockWallet and Lightning Pub, and we'd like you to test and provide feedback!"

"Lightning Pub is a daemon for your Lightning Node, providing a full RPC and account system over nostr."

"Pub's nostr RPC gives your node LNURL and REST like capabilities, but fully end-to-end encrypted and bi-directional interfacing that “just works” in the browser, since nostr relays have solved the networking and SSL problems for you!"

"Now, with Lightning Pub, you can easily give websites, apps, friends, family, other guests, and wallets, granular access to your node without need for the complicated networking and setup of a traditional webserver."

"We believe the future is the Uncle Jim in all of us on-boarding our personal circle, in a decentralized and sustainable way, without compromising on UX."

"As the creators of Lightning.Video, we recently started using Lightning.Pub in production there, but a tool this powerful demanded an everyday wallet that could take advantage of all it has to offer. So, we've rebooted ShockWallet!"
ShockWallet is built with React and Ionic allowing builds for PWA, Android APK, or iOS. The iOS version is currently unbuilt and untested, help or donations requested.
