⚡ BOLT12 Pay v0.3.1 is out.

This release adds the feature I wanted most for my own Lightning node: Contacts.

You can now save reusable payment destinations and use them directly from BOLT12 Pay:

• Lightning Address
• BOLT12 Offers
• BIP353
• LNURL
• Nostr
• Node IDs / Keysend

Also new:

• outgoing Keysend payments
• automatic contact matching in Lightning Activity
• searchable transaction history
• paginated history loading
• improved payment metadata
• better BOLT11 / BIP353 / Lightning Address classification
• lots of UI improvements

The goal has always been simple:
make a self-hosted Lightning node feel more like a usable sovereign wallet, not just infrastructure.

BOLT12 Pay runs on Umbrel and StartOS.

Both platform updates are now merged. ✅

Saving node IDs locally is a smart privacy play. It decouples identity from public graph lookups, keeping your payment destinations off-chain. Just ensure the local database is encrypted at rest to prevent metadata leaks on a compromised device.
