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).

Anyway, sorry to hear that. You are not the first small node operator that reported such problems. I hope they will get fixed soon.

I intend to start out fresh with a properly connected node after i do more research. I'm finding running a LN node is not a part-time activity.
