# ⚡ Thor – A Lightning Address Server Powered by Rust and NWC

**Your domain. Your address. No node. Just Rust and NWC.**

Thor is a fast, self-hosted Lightning Address server written in Rust.

By using NWC (Nostr Wallet Connect), it allows users to receive Lightning payments through their own domain — **without running a Lightning Network node**.


## ✨ Features

- ⚡ Custom Lightning addresses like `you@yourdomain.com`
- 🧠 No need to run LND or Core Lightning — just connect to your wallet via NWC
- 🦀 High-performance and safe — implemented in Rust
- 🧩 Self-hosted and easy to deploy
- 🔧 Configurable and extensible architecture (LND, CLN support planned)
