Rando LN question for anyone out there with knowledge / experience. I have a node that has been up for a couple of weeks now, with five channels open. I regularly interact with CashApp and am having trouble getting LN payments through to that service; have trouble with small and large, size doesn't seem to matter. I'm however able to reliably send sats to services like Mutiny and Boltz. As far as I know CashApp doesn't have infrastructure with published details to be able to open a channel directly to them. Does anyone have any ideas on peer(s) I could open additional channel(s) to that would resolve this issue? Appreciate any constructive perspectives. 🙂

I have successfully sent from my Breez wallet to CashApp recently. Not sure if they’re a direct peer, but at least there was a successfully route from their node to CashApp.

I have never been able to send from Breez to CashApp, but can send lightning payments from CashApp to Breez, so only one direction for me 🤷🏻‍♀️

Part of the annoying thing about it is that sending to CashApp has worked once or twice out of the dozens of times I've attempted. It's so flakey.

Maybe the node name is a scam and has no connection to CashApp business.

if you could send me a small cash app invoice i could try and tell you which route the payment took. i got some more channels open.

maybe send the invoice over dm!

🙏 Sending DM.

Usually something simple like keysend(y/n?), max fee and max paths settings. Make sure your connected to a node with high connectivity like asinq as well

Asinq is a good thought, thank you.
