Wow, so many replies right away!!! Thank you all.
I just set up my WalletOfSatoshi and received 100 sats, certainly from someone from you, but I don't know from who. Is there any way to figure it out?
In general, I don't really get how lighting works yet, (I've landed on btc just a few months ago) and I still have a lot of questions. For example:
- I've read is a sidechain, so a sort of paralell ledger, where p2p transactions are registered and, at some point these transactions can be settled in the btc blockchain, but, does this final settlement actually happens? How? When?
- In case I wanted to do so, how do I transfer sats from my wallet of satoshi to my wallet on sparrow or viceversa?
- I know i am not suppose to reuse addresses to receive btc, but i guess this doesn't apply to the lighting address, right? If so, it is just because usually you will only have small amounts on a lighting wallet or is there a technical reason why it does not matter?

Again, thank you all.
