Major changes include:
1) One Master Key for easier key management 🗝️
2) Personalization of the Alby Account 🐝
3) Lightning Login changes ⚠️
1. Introduction of a Master key 🗝️
As a user, you now have a Master key from which you are able to derive your private keys for Nostr, on-chain bitcoin, Lightning login (LNURL-auth). This also includes a recovery phrase which makes backups a lot easier.
2. Personalization of the Alby Account 🐝
The new Alby Account connector allows you to personalize the browser extension by showing your own lightning address, your avatar from your personal Alby page and much more in the future.
3. Login with lightning changes ⚠️
We can now tie the login with lightning via LNURL-auth to a private key. This guide about how to migrate the login into 3rd party apps to the new Alby Account connector has you covered:
