Michael Bumann wants to make it simpler for people to send value across the internet
This is why he created Alby — an open-source initiative-turned-company best known for its browser extension wallet app, which enables users to send and receive sats via the Lightning Network
a soft-spoken and introspective German web developer with decades of experience in his field
believes that bitcoin should be able to move as freely as information does on the internet
he’d like to see Lightning integrated into all corners of the web
“The mission is to make Lightning available within web applications,” Bumann told Bitcoin Magazine
“We want to make this accessible — to have this real deep integration
a very seamless thing in which payments are no longer blocking user experiences.”
Bumann and the team at Alby are currently succeeding in their mission
as Alby is one of the easiest Lightning wallets to both set up and use and has become a go to for creators around the world
is that its much more than just a Lightning Wallet
“Alby initially was the browser extension [wallet],” said Bumann of the Alby wallet, which lets users a create a convenient LNURL address (e.g., [email protected]) that they can use for sending and receiving bitcoin over Lightning
“The goal was to have the browser talk to the Alby extension, which then talks to a node on the Lightning Network. Back then we had mainly LND (an implementation of a Lightning node) and talking to LND from a browser was and still is actually super complicated,” he added
After some time, Bumann and his team at Alby created a wallet API
which can be used to integrate Lightning payments into any application
Think integrating Lightning payments into your favorite podcasting app to help you get paid as a podcaster
Alby also provides its users with an LNDHub
which allows them to plug in and manage multiple Lightning accounts via one interface and node
Many use the Alby browser extension wallet as a custodial wallet, but users can also use it in a non-custodial fashion with Alby Hub
which enables users to connect to Alby via their own node or pay a small fee to have Alby run a node for them
we move in a direction where it’s easy enough for people to run their own nodes and their own wallets,” said Bumann
“Anything in between is an intermediary step.”
Alby has something for everyone from new users to the most advanced
which is part of the reason why it’s gained so much traction in just two and a half years
On that note, Alby has grown faster than even Bumann and his team anticipated, prompting them make setting up an Alby account invite-only for the time being
so that they can keep up with demand — a demand that should only grow as Bumann and his team implement Nostr Wallet Connect (NWC)
While Bumann acknowledges that Lightning is “still very small” and believes that we’re still in a “research phase” regarding the Layer 2 and its use cases, he sees Nostr Zaps as a great use of Lightning
Bumann and the team at Alby found another way in which Nostr could help further Lightning adoption
They saw that they could use Nostr relays to send requests to pay Lightning invoices. And so they created a protocol called Nostr Wallet Connect (NWC) in conjunction with the team from Amethyst
Alby has been prepping for the release of its new wallet
which will harness the new and unique capabilities that NWC gives it
“We are currently about to launch our new self-sovereign Lightning wallet focusing on NWC,” said Bumann
“It’s a new wallet that focuses on NWC as a protocol to interact with the wallet
It’s different from the typical wallet that has a send button
a receive button and a transaction list,” he added
Then they can give certain permissions to certain applications and allow
You can send a certain amount of money in my name
Here is a subscription service that I allow to pull $10 from my wallet each month’ — things like that.”
Bumann went on to share that a non-custodial Lightning wallet that accepts and dispenses payments in such a manner would be impossible without NWC
He added that the protocol isn’t necessarily optimized for human use
it was designed primarily to be connected to other applications
and he believes this will “make many more applications possible.”
“It’s a wallet that’s optimized for being always on
because one of the limitations we have with Lightning is that you have to be online to receive and send [sats],” said Bumann
“Especially if you want to automate things in other applications
‘Optimize for that.’ The user doesn’t need to interact with the application
You get it running once and that’s it,” he added
This type of wallet can run from your desktop
the users’ data and keys will be encrypted by nothing more than a password
While Bumann and the Alby team will be fine tuning NWC has it’s rolled out — which will include the release of an NWC mobile app — they’ll also be looking at further ways to take Alby into the future
Bumann noted that Alby still doesn’t have a plan to release its own mobile app as mobile UI is not well-suited for the integrated UX Alby offers via its browser extension product
He says that implementing Bolt 12 is “definitely on the list,” though
it doesn’t seem to be his highest priority
He’s also paying attention to burgeoning ecash systems like Cashu and Fedi and considering how he might be able to incorporate them into Alby
he and the team at Alby are paying attention to the feedback that they get from users in efforts to improve their product
“[Customer service] is also needed because the whole thing that we do is really early,” said Bumann
and even Bitcoiners that are excited are still facing problems.”
Bumann and the Alby team work to alleviate these problems in two ways:
[we] trying to make it easier for users to get around these rough edges
to get on the Bitcoin and Lightning train somehow,” he said
it’s just super important for us to identify where are people struggling
We see it also as like it’s a bit of a collaboration with the users,” he explained
a project that’s grown by leaps and bounds in almost no time at all
he’s remained humble and in touch with those he serves
“It’s very important that the developers that are in the code and building the features get the user feedback or are close to the user feedback,” said Bumann
[do customer service] and we all still do it.”

Wellington Phoenix goalkeeper Alby Kelly-Heald will miss the rest of the men’s A-League season but hopes to recover from a shoulder injury in time for the FIFA U-20 Men’s World Cup
Kelly-Head (20) dislocated his shoulder at training earlier this month and didn’t travel to Sydney for the round 23 Isuzu UTE A-League match against the Sky Blues
An MRI has since revealed a torn labrum in his left shoulder which requires surgery
He made eight successive starts from when he made his A-League debut in January and kept two clean sheets
“When you start playing you see yourself continuing to play the rest of the season
You don’t anticipate any big injuries or anything like this
“I’m disappointed I can’t finish the season off with the team
Main photo: Alby Kelly-Heald … ‘gutted’ to miss rest of the season
Kelly-Heald is determined “to come back fitter and stronger” and remains hopeful of returning in time for the FIFA U-20 World Cup in Chile in September and October
there are no hiccups and we can get everything done really quickly I think there is a chance
“The rehab process now is strengthening it up until I get surgery and then post-surgery I’ll be looking at something around six months or so
it’s not too tough on the mind as well as it is physically.”
Head coach Giancarlo Italiano feels for Kelly-Heald and the team
“I’m disappointed for Alby on a personal note because he’s done a lot of hard work to get the number one spot,” Italiano said
“It’s also disappointing for the team dynamic because since he’s come in he’s given us a lot of security
and it’s just a small little bump in his career.”
Italiano also has faith in Josh Oluwayemi and Dublin Boon to step up in Kelly-Heald’s absence
“He was ready for his opportunity and Dubs will do a good job as an understudy.”

Joe was the oldest son of Henry and Gayle Kuznicki
He grew up with a love for working on cars and especially his muscle car - a dark blue 1965 Mustang
He put his love of working on machines to use with his job at Hotsy
hot water cleaning system for large equipment vehicles
Elizabeth Leyba and wooed her with his charming good looks
quick wit and funny Polish jokes (being Polish
he knew many) not to mention he had a cool muscle car—a 64 ½ Mustang that he loved
Joe also learned how to paint cars at this time
He and Elizabeth decided to test out Joe’s skills on her ’73 VW bug
Together they went after work to a paint booth and took the chrome off the car and sanded it all down and painted it a beautiful burnt orange color
They decided to take a road trip in the “new” car and visited Disney Land and Sea World in California and a day trip over to Tijuana
The following year they went to Las Vegas for a short trip with Elizabeth’s parents.
he and Elizabeth were married in August of 1982
From there he was stationed at Ft Lewis/McCord military base for two years
Hawaii where they enjoyed the wonderful food
the many beaches and flea markets and the spirit of Mahalo
Elizabeth gave birth to their first child at Tripler Army medical hospital while they were stationed on the island of Oahu in 1984
After Joe’s tour in Hawaii the family returned to Colorado where Joe and Elizabeth were blessed with their second child in 1987
they started their civilian life with their two children
Elizabeth and Hollie (Victor would be born a couple of months later) made a road trip to Tennessee to see Elizabeth’s family then on to Florida to see Joe’s aunt
Elizabeth and Hollie made a quick trip to Disney World while there
Joe always loved doing family activities like going to the zoo
going fishing in the mountains with the kids and their cousins or going to the Renaissance festival and other fun outdoor activities
Joe would take the kids to Washington Park and show them how to catch crawdads with just a hook and piece of liver
When the kids were little Joe loved showing them how to pound nails in a piece of wood or use a ratcheting screwdriver
Other times he would get model kits and show them how to put them together
Back in the day the kids would go with him to Cripple Creek casinos and Joe would keep them well supplied with coins to play the children’s video games
A few years later Joe attended Emily Griffith and received a degree in computers
Hollie Amber Justice Kuznicki and Victor Allen Kuznicki; his granddaughter
Oakleigh Sky Kuznicki; his brother Randy Kuznicki
aunt and uncle; cousin and nieces and nephews
A celebration of Joe’s life will be held on July 8
From there an honorary military service will be held at Ft Logan National Cemetery in Denver
There will be a remembrance gathering once returning from Ft Logan
and service will live on in the hearts of all who knew him
He will be deeply missed but forever remembered for his gentle spirit and the beautiful difference he made in the world

TribLIVE's Daily and Weekly email newsletters deliver the news you want and information you need
Trib Total Media TV writer Rob Owen answers reader questions every Wednesday at TribLive.com in a column that also appears in the Sunday Tribune-Review
Q: What’s the story with Alby Oxenreiter
He hasn’t been seen for about a year on WPXI-TV
I’m wondering if he decided to retire early because of his health condition
Rob: It was a year ago this month that Oxenreiter had open heart surgery, including the replacement of two heart valves
Oxenreiter has not retired from Channel 11
“Thanks to everyone who has expressed concern,” Oxenreiter said
“I’m making progress and feeling positive but still working through some lingering issues
My health and recovery continue to be my only concern.”
Q: I’ve been a fan of “Masterpiece Theater’s” “Miss Scarlett and The Duke.” I was surprised to read that Stuart Martin
continue when one of the title characters leaves
They have written his character out in the storyline but in a way that the character could possibly return sometime in the future
Or perhaps bring in a new character who can fill in as a new Duke
Rob: Earlier this year PBS announced the show will be retitled “Miss Scarlet” for season five once it becomes Duke-less
The series will add actor Durant Pritchard as Alexander Blake
who “Masterpiece” describes as “a handsome former soldier and respected detective inspector who joins the force at Scotland Yard to replace William “The Duke” Wellington who has gone to America
he meets private detective Miss Eliza Scarlet (Kate Phillips)
“He’s not particularly shocked by a woman working as a private eye
so Eliza takes this to mean she’ll be given more cases,” the “Masterpiece” announcement continues
“But their relationship gets off to a rocky start since Blake has decided not to allow private detectives to aid in his investigations
As Blake and Miss Scarlet cross paths at various crime scenes across London
they can’t help but develop mutual respect for one another
Q: I know that watching a show live can contribute to its ratings
I’m curious about the impact of recording a show
Does recording a show contribute to its ratings
does it have to be watched in a certain amount of time
Rob: The only way Jonathan’s viewership would be counted is if he became part of the Nielsen panel and Nielsen hooked up devices to his TV that measured what he watches
recorded TV and on-demand TV would be recorded by Nielsen
I’m pretty sure you do have to play back the recorded episode for it to count as being watched
(There are multiple metrics for how long after a live event that playback can be counted; “live plus seven [days]” is pretty standard but Nielsen also measures — and networks do sell ads based on — viewership of programs played beyond the first seven days of an original telecast.)
Most people watching TV do not have their specific viewing counted; just the folks in the Nielsen panel (for May 2024
that was 1,131 homes for households in Western Pennsylvania and 935 people in the age 25-54 demo)
Nielsen then extrapolates from that sample to approximate the average viewership of a program

New Zealand age group international goalkeeper Alby Kelly-Heald has kept a clean sheet in his first team debut for Wellington Phoenix
Kelly-Heald (19) was brought into the starting line-up to replace Josh Oluwayemi between the posts and helped his side earn a point in their scoreless draw with in-form Sydney
Alby Kelly-Heald’s appearance also meant he played in the same side as twin brother Lukas Kelly-Heald
with the pair becoming only the third set of twins to appear in an Isuzu UTE A-League match
After losing five of their last six matches
the Phoenix side clearly set out to starve Sydney of goalscoring opportunities
The nearest Sydney came to scoring was when referee Shaun Evans awarded a penalty midway through the second half when forward Patryk Klimala took a tumble when tackled by young Phoenix defender Isaac Hughes
The penalty decision was reversed after a VAR review
Defending champions Auckland United are ready for strong competition at the OFC Women’s Champions League..
Wellington Phoenix have been forced to make a late change to their squad to meet Sydney in Sunday’s men’s A-League fixture
Goalkeeper Alby Kelly-Heald has dropped out of the squad after picking up an injury in training
The Phoenix say the extent of his injury is not yet known
His place in the extended squad named by head coach Giancarlo Italiano has been taken by Josh Oluwayemi
Main photo: Alby Kelly-Heald … injured in training
The Nix will also have third-string ‘keeper Dublin Boon in their extended squad
the Phoenix will continue to manage game minutes as key players work to reach full match fitness after returning from illness and injury
Teenage winger Gabriel Sloane-Rodrigues has rejoined the squad after returning from injury
Italiano said he had five players in the last-round loss to Western United that “don’t have 90 minutes in them”
the side finished the game with eight players U-23 on the pitch
captain Alex Rufer has been regaining fitness after a bout of glandular fever
while All Whites Tim Payne and Marco Rojas have been recovering from injuries
“I think it’s been more about getting players fit and ready,” Italiano said
“There’s a lot of boys coming back and also there’s no lack of desperation from the boys; it just hasn’t clicked
we’ve been punished as well for because of our lack of sharpness.”
including Golden Boot contenders Joe Lolley
The trio have scored 25 goals between them this Isuzu UTE A-League season

Big Akwa is making a significant stride forward in its plans to build a large-scale land-based rainbow trout farm near Ljungan in Alby
Today the company submitted its application for environmental permit
marking an important milestone in the project
The planned fish farm is designed to produce 6,000 tons of rainbow trout per year
equivalent to 2-3% of the annual fish consumption in Sweden
This facility will be one of the largest in the country and will utilize state-of-the-art technology
the fish farm is planned to be situated near the proposed hydrogen plant in the area
enabling future collaboration based on industrial symbiosis
“"This is a significant milestone for us
and we are pleased to have progressed this far in the project
All the conditions for building a sustainable and competitive operation are in place in Alby
and there is considerable public interest in increasing domestic food production
we are confident that this is a worthwhile investment," says Elena Petukhovskaya
The next step is the processing of the application by the Environmental Permitting Delegation within the County Administrative Board of Västernorrland
The company's hope is that a permit will be granted later this year
Big Akwa is a Swedish company founded in 2020
specializing in the development of innovative concepts for resource-efficient food production
The company aims to establish large-scale land-based fish farming
operating in collaboration with nearby process industries through industrial symbiosis
This approach allows the use of industrial by-products while contributing to the sustainable and competitive production of fish
The company boasts several individuals with extensive experience in the industry

The Phoenix will be without their goalkeeper for the rest of the A-League football season with scans revealing Alby Kelly-Heald needs shoulder surgery
The young Wellington Phoenix keeper dislocated his shoulder at training earlier this month and didn't travel to Sydney for the round 23 match against the Sky Blues
