worst thing is waking up to see someone hacked your zeus wallet not even 24hrs after adding 1mil sat to open your lightning channel finally.. 😞

I’m so sorry. Do you know how this might of happened?

maybe because my phone automatically connected to a public wifi while in the museum, or maybe because i have some stuck funds from a lightning node misconfiguration 😞 i really don’t know.

Either way, I’m so sorry! 😞

Noooo 😮

Any info on what might have happened here? Was the channel closed by the peer?

honestly, i am still struggling to understand it all. i was trying to fix a mistake i made trying to open a lightning node on zeus with only ~200usd … those sats are still stuck. my zeus shows me there’s 20 zombie channels right now, but i cant seem to look into any of them.

chatting with Evan from the zeus team and he’s told me to get 1mil more sats on that wallet but to do a CPFP protocol to get the original 200 but i am so not ready to trust it yet.

Wow, that’s alarming. Are you sure you are speaking with the correct Evan from Zeus? From what I’ve experienced in the past, Child pays for parent shouldn’t require a specific amount of bitcoin to accelerate a stuck on chain payment. Maybe it’s a Zeus app requirement, but that is a terrible UX & expectation
