Notice to any users of the STPI cashu mint: I'm shutting it down for now.

There are too many remote-close and force-close on my lightning node, there is also erratic behavior like strange cashu/ln transactions and pending payments that I can't explain. Lightning is too unpredictable and impossible to debug, its not ready for prime-time in my opinion. I've been running this node for two years and the technology is not improving. This high fee environment is making it too costly to run a routing node, and the ln-tx fees don't even put a dent in the channel open and close fees.

Please remove your sats from the mint.

I will try to keep it open long enough for people to remove their sats (there isn't much).

This is bizarre to me. I’ve been running a CLN node since 2018 and i haven’t had many force closes or flakiness at all really. I’m starting to suspect people are complaining about lnd and not lightning.

This is the opinion I get & I’m not a dev

Could be... I haven't had great experiences with CLN nor LND lately.
