an application that allows you to make Lightning payments with your bank account or debit card. Using Strike requires the following: a debit card or bank account. That’s it; no wallet, no node, no channels, no swaps, no liquidity management, no anything.

Great and inspiring find, V8 - it looks like it might be the killer app... the Bitcoin VISA.

Sure it's early days, and I know it's not people having Bitcoin and spending it as we might idealise - but I think this rocks.  I get LN, but I haven't found any real reason I want to use it.  With this everyone just might and be linked to Mr Nakamoto's beautiful idea without even knowing it.

May be very early days. I signed up for the beta and still have not heard back but indeed could be a killer app if it takes hold.
