1 year ago what about allowing AMP invoices instead of single use lightning invoices?
https://docs.lightning.engineering/lightning-network-tools/lnd/amp
no need to rely on a 3rd party custodial wallets by allowing amp invoices instead of lud-06 lightning addresses.

What are the benefits of AMP? There are multiple benefits of Atomic Multi-Path Payments of the lightning network. Some of these are:
It enhances privacy as more significant payments look like the smaller ones, and in the background, only the sender & receiver knows how they are sending/receiving the payment through AMP. This also allows you to use the existing lightning wallets without making any significant changes to them. If any of the small payment routes fail, the whole payment fails, and this is how the atomicity comes in to prevent scenarios like partial payments. It reduces the chances of failed payments and improves the user experience of Lightning. It allows for larger transactions to be conducted on Lightning and takes even more strain on the base layer, driving down the cost of block space in theory. It improves the ability for routing nodes to earn income as they are routing more payments to clip fees on It improves the decentralisation of the lightning network as smaller channels now have a better chance of routing payments and providing valuable connections between wallets. AMPs also enhance the user experience as it allows you to send most of your money in your wallet to the other receivers. While in the absence of AMP, the user will always have a capped base limit on how much they can send despite having more money in the wallet, which can be a wired experience for the user. Consider having 100 satoshis in the account, but you can only send 20 satoshis because the payment channels don’t support 100 satoshis!

User Story
As a Damus engineer who is providing many new nostr users their first nostr experience, I want to help newbies by detecting if users are entering single use lightning invoices in their
Bitcoin Lightning Tipsprofile field AND warn them if yes AND suggest they use a Lightning Address (for instance, examplelightningaddress@walletofsatoshi.com, or LNURL), so that their LN capabilities are not affected.Acceptance Criteria
