So far my experience with nostr:npub1jg552aulj07skd6e7y2hu0vl5g8nl5jvfw8jhn6jpjk0vjd0waksvl6n8n Lightning has not been a good one. I now have sats in my wallet that can’t be sent because it’s unable to find a route — not just to my node but to large providers like ACINQ.
I’ve filed a support ticket and hoping Adam Back gives me some white glove service. 😏 nostr:note14xp2at0uffsugv3hgpsfhfwvrwf6tk9dynvk62lx0j6pl7s580ns63v366
Was it officially released?
No, it’s in the “experimental features” section on TestFlight. I’m aware what I signed up for, but I’m doing this for the plebs.
That’s frustrating.
I also tried it out and did not have a good experience.
It's that shitty Breez node they use. That thing is awful.
I use Green LN and I do not have issues with send and receive.
Keep in mind that the node infra is still in beta phase so maybe liquidity is not well maintained.
I would expect situations like you describe not finding routes.
This wallet is still green (sic).
Bro, I can’t even send 1000 sats out of it. What are they using for liquidity, a juice box?
I never experienced problems to receive but most of the payments I send from it fail, don't know why exactly
I think is also about the routes is taking in the payment moment.
I sent from Green to :
- Blixt - worked with no issues, various amounts
- Zeus - worked with no issues, various amounts
- Stacker.news - worked, no issues, but only small amounts (tips)
- Alby - worked 100% all the time, various amounts
- Phoenix - worked, but when I sent more than 20k sats it failed 1st intent. 2nd intent worked after few minutes.
- Blink - worked 100% all the time
- some other private nodes, worked with little issues of liquidity.
I tried (amouts of 212121 sats) and you are right Alby and Blink work all the time, but impossible to send to Bitkit for example. But it succeeds to reach my own node for some reason (big channel with ACINQ I maybe)...
But still is' strange from a pleb node runner point of view, when our own small nodes can send without any problem and an LSP can't lol
My experience:
1 payment to my own LND node with lots of liquidity: successful
All subsequent payments of any amount to any other wallet failed.
These include:
Zeus
Phoenix
Mutiny
Alby
My node again
Yep it's really unreliable.
Strange coming from a LSP based model and from Blockstream/Breez in particular, and considering that the routing is not made on the phone but online with Greenlight if I understand correctly...The graph synch should be good and reliable no ?
