For more about LNBits extension check this tutorial
This extension allows users to sell NIP-05 verification to other nostr users on a domain they control.
- Create a Domain by clicking "NEW DOMAIN"\
- Fill the options for your DOMAIN
- select the wallet
- select the fiat currency the invoice will be denominated in
- select an amount in fiat to charge users for verification
- enter the domain (or subdomain) you want to provide verification for
- Note, you must own this domain and have access to a web server
- You can then use share your signup link with your users to allow them to sign up
In order for this to work, you need to have ownership of a domain name, and access to a web server that this domain is pointed to.
Then, you'll need to set up a proxy that points https://{your_domain}/.well-known/nostr.json
to https://{your_lnbits}/nostrnip5/api/v1/domain/{domain_id}/nostr.json
