Update on my efforts to get a static, multi-use QR code for Lightning payments, so my kids can receive payment for scooping doggy doo:
hzrd149 (npub1ye5…knpr) helped me find my Alby (npub1get…0nfm) raw text LNURL and directed me to a Google tool that generated a QR code for it. It worked like a charm, BUT....not every wallet could handle it:
Wallet of Satoshi (npub1hcw…h9rq): smooth as butter—instant sats
Phoenix: Also smooth—instant sats
Muun: Choked on the LNURL, thought it was a pull request rather than push
Breez: if you select the right option first, it worked, but it was very slow
Strike: Choked on the LNURL. Dang it!!! (This was the one I needed most to work) strike (npub1ex7…vyt9) jack mallers (npub1cn4…3vle)
CashApp: Choked on LNURL but seemed to be ok with a generated invoice with a configured amount of sats. I gritted my teech, jumped through their stupid KYC hoops, and then discovered that I have to formally purchase BTC in order to process a LN invoice. I can't start with fiat and send it via LN (like Strike brilliantly supports).
So I'm partially there. Strike support for LNURL's would provide the lowest barrier of entry to plebs. Sigh....
One day--ONE DAY!--everything will revolve around freedom money. The future is here; it's just not evenly distributed.

quoting note1wta…flr8Hi Alby (npub1get…0nfm)!
Is there a way for me to generate an LNURL QR code that is reusable?
Use case: My kids are starting a Dog Poop Scooping business in our neighborhood, and I’d like to have a QR code that any of their customers can scan with Strike and send payment—without requiring me to generate a custom invoice every time.
I’ve been told this is possible with Alby but I can’t figure it out. Thanks!
