Usage

Not all internet identifiers are Lightning Addresses. Make use of this API to validate whether a user’s entered address is indeed a valid Lightning Address that can accept Bitcoin payments.

The idea behind this API endpoint is to verify whether an internet-indentifier (e.g. user@domain.com) is in fact a Lightning Address and NOT an email address. Once verified, use the Send Lightning Address Payment to perform the transaction.
