ShockWallet

• Name: ShockWallet
• URL: https://shockwallet.app/
• Category: Bitcoin Lightning wallet client / Nostr-native shared-node access
• Tags: bitcoin-ecosystem nostr-ecosystem
• Summary: ShockWallet is mostly the client shell for SHOCKNET’s Lightning.Pub stack. The useful part is shared-node access — multi-node connections, guest onboarding, recurring or pre-authorized payments, multi-device sync, and a thin admin surface. It is not a wallet-category anchor on its own.
• What it does:
  • Connects to Lightning nodes over Nostr and supports multiple node connections instead of just one embedded wallet backend
  • Acts as the reference wallet client for Lightning.Pub, including guest-style shared-node onboarding via nprofile connection flows
  • Supports synced usage across web, Android, and iOS, with multi-device state sync described as using NIP-78
  • Supports recurring payments, pre-authorized payment requests, and static-offer style receive flows for external apps and services
  • Includes an early admin surface for operators using Lightning.Pub
• Key claims:
  • The homepage calls ShockWallet “The Lightning wallet for friends, family, and business” and frames it as part of an open-source stack for sharing a node over Nostr, which is the clearest signal that this is shared-node infrastructure dressed as a wallet client
  • The canonical README says ShockWallet is the reference wallet client for Lightning.Pub, supports multiple node connections, recurring payments, pre-authorized app payments, and multi-device sync via NIP-78; that is enough to classify it as a service-access client rather than a plain consumer wallet
  • SHOCKNET’s site and GitHub organization place ShockWallet beside Lightning.Pub, CLINK, and other Lightning-and-Nostr tooling, which reinforces that the wallet sits inside a broader operator stack instead of standing alone as the main product
• Whitepaper: No canonical standalone ShockWallet whitepaper or litepaper surfaced in this pass. The clearest current source of truth was the official homepage, the canonical repository README, the SHOCKNET site, and the SHOCKNET GitHub organization; see ../whitepapers/shockwallet-primary-sources-2026-05-03.md.
