Alby is based af. Just keeps on improving bit by bit with every new release. This is how you win.

Lots of exciting stuff brewing to make #Bitcoin payments more scalable and seamless! 🚀

How could a NWC (npub19hg…yv9p)-first wallet like Alby Hub work on mobile?
A technical experiment 👇
https://blog.getalby.com/alby-hub-android-foreground-service-experiment/
Our goal: Keep the smooth Alby Hub experience of connecting apps of your choice, but make it even easier for new users to jump in.

So we tried something a bit more nostr-native: an Android Foreground Service!
This lets us maintain a persistent WebSocket connection without needing push notification services.

It is running on a #Cashu wallet and could also play nicely with #Ark or #Spark!

We do many experiments like this one to see if the idea is viable.
As it helps to shape our direction going forward we'd love to know: Would run Alby Hub as an Foreground Service on Android? 🔋📲
