Phoenix and NFC

[gorrdy]

Bitcoin payments are slowly moving to the new standard as e.g. Breez, Wallet of Satoshi, Lnbits, Btcpayserver and many other tools (nearly all I know) are accepting now NFC payments with static LNURLw or the Bolt Card standard

LNRULw spec: https://github.com/lnurl/luds/blob/luds/03.md
Bolt Card spec: https://github.com/boltcard/boltcard/blob/main/docs/SPEC.md

Do Phoenix plan to introduce NFC support?

E.g.

Phoenix -> Receive -> Amount -> Create Invoice

• on this page, Phonix could look for a NFC card/bolt ring/LNURL tag and try to create a payment request for the same amount the invoice was generated, similarly to Wallet Of Satoshi

We do plan to support NFC on Phoenix, for now we are working on adding splices, but after that's done we'll look into it.

Hi, any progress on that?

That feature would be great 💪

On Android you just need to register handling of "lightning:" in AndroidManifest.xml. See
