To all the expert lightning node operators out there. Even though I've been in bitcoin since 2013, I'm just now starting to run my own node and lightning, so still a novice in that regards.

My setup:

Node: Start 9 Embassy

Lightning backend: Core Lightning

Lightning front end: Ride the Lightning

My question:

I see where I can generate an on-chain address to send funds to, but I don't see anywhere that I can export the private keys and I'm also unable to locate where they might be on the filesystem/OS.

Anyone know how I can get the private keys or a recovery phrase? I'm hesitant to send any bitcoins to an address that I can't recover. Thanks.

My understanding is Start9 makes this a bit tricky on purpose. Right now, your best bet is to do a full embassy backup on another drive
