<p>Kinda. You can do that by using LND's keysend, although it's not enabled by default:</p><p><a href="https://docs.lightning.engineering/lightning-network-tools/lnd/send-messages-with-keysend" target="_blank">https://docs.lightning.engineering/lightning-network-tools/lnd/send-messages-with-keysend</a></p><p><br></p><p>That's basically what juggernaut uses to send messages:</p><p><a href="https://www.getjuggernaut.com" target="_blank">https://www.getjuggernaut.com/</a></p>
