TL;DR - I Fucking Love @zeus!

Had LND onchain transaction 3 months ago, intended to clear out my Node and start something from start, but the tx with 5 sats/vbyte never get confirmed ever.

I can't do anything stupid because it's not a small amount of sats, I know LND is something special, I asked some groups a month ago whether I can import the LND seedphrase into a wallet and do a fee bump or something, no one answered so I dare not do anything. I thought of doing fee bumping on mempool.space but the service charges much.

Lately as I was moving, I brought the Node hardware with me and flied tens of thousands km away, after settle down I thought this stupid LND node thing should be brought to a period so that I can start over, but the 5 sats/vbyte tx is still there waiting for confirmation, the nearest time is 7 or 8 sats/vbyte, but damn it never reach 5.

I asked ChatGPT what should I do last night, it told me to it's safe to import the 24 words seeds into any Bitcoin wallet and fee bump it, nothing affects the Node itself. Alright, fisrt I tried Sparrow, can't even type the last phrase because it was identified as an invalid BIP39 seed phrase, Wasabi Wallet same. Then I tried BlueWallet, it let me type over 24 words and the seed was imported as an "HD Aezeed" wallet, idk what it is although it's a special design of LND blah blah, weird thing is, it won't show the full transaction history of the LDN, I checked many times of the Electrs server, both public one and privite one, weird as always, only very few transations were shown in BlueWallet, most importantely, the un-confirmed last tx was not shown. Then ChatGPT told me the addresses starting with "bc1p" is Taproot type, which may be the reason underneath the many tx historys' disappearance, but BlueWallet does support Taproot, and so does Sparrow, both app in latest version. Weird, fucking weird, you know for a non-technical due like me.

I asked ChatGPT again and again, last question is how to import a stupid "HD Aezeed" wallet seed phrase, it suggested first ThunderHub, second ZeusLN, oh fuck, I had been using ZeusLN for always! And yes, ZeusLN can easily do a fee bump for the LND Node onchain tx.

Alright, case closed. I will ask ChatGPT to beautify this long ass boring story, but the core message is, I FUCKING LOVE ZEUS!

Good night.

Ah yes, the joy of running a node.

Afaik you can also convert aezeed format in bip39 format for e.g. sparrow.

Chantools is also really helpful to recover sats. But great to see that Zeus made it so easy.
