has hydra pay has been implemented 100% in-mobile phone? connecting to the internet only to open/close the head and sync to blockchain?

Hey @siran thanks for reaching out,

Hydra Pay provides you with an "instance" which is composed of a Cardano Node, and an API that lets you spin up and spin down Hydra Heads (clusters of connected hydra nodes) to make payment channels or general Hydra Heads.

It has been used on a mobile phone: As a proof of concept and use case of Hydra Pay we created an app called Hydra Now which is in beta.

The app is written entirely in haskell (both the frontend and the backend), and we use cross compilation to support android and the web simultaneously.

Thanks! Heading there now. I'd like to contribute somehow to pass the beta...

Is Hydra Now open sourced? Is it possible to contribute?

@Yasuke I couldn't import a 15 word wallet... Do I need to have all the 24? Yoroi gave me 15

@siran HydraNow isn't currently open-source. Its hydra interactions utilize hydra-pay, and the app itself is built with Obelisk- If you'd like to learn more: https://github.com/obsidiansystems/obelisk
