Maybe not. I feel confident I will get it back. Just learning right now. First time I have dealt with this.

have you checked the addressed on a blockchain explorer?

I looked this up for you specifically for Electrum.

Steps to Import a 24-Word BIP39 Seed into Electrum

Open Electrum

Launch the app and choose “File → New/Restore” to create a new wallet.

Name Your Wallet

Enter a name and click Next.

Select Wallet Type

Choose the wallet type:

Standard wallet (for single key)!!

Choose “I already have a seed”

Select that option and click Next.

Paste Your 24-Word Seed

Now here’s the trick:

Paste or type your 24-word BIP39 seed.

THEN, check the box below that says:

“Options” → “BIP39 seed”

Click Next

Electrum will recognize it as a BIP39 seed and let you continue.

Choose Script Type (Derivation Path)

Electrum will ask what kind of wallet you want:

Legacy (P2PKH): m/44'/0'/0'/0

Native SegWit (P2WPKH): m/84'/0'/0'/0

Nested SegWit (P2SH-P2WPKH): m/49'/0'/0'/0

Or Custom derivation path

If you're unsure and want modern addresses (bc1), use:

m/84'/0'/0'/0

Wallet Loads

Electrum will scan the keys and generate addresses based on your chosen derivation.

Bear in mind that you CANNOT lose anything if this doesn't work out but I sure hope it does.

Also, if this works then leave the wallet open for some time so that it has a chance to scrape the chain for your transactions and balances.

Maybe it's just this. 🤷 I'm not sure what else to do. I wonder if I reinstall my node on my Umbrel if that would be any better. I don't see why. I'm afraid to wipe it. It won't do anything right now.

I tried this too, more than once. Said no wallets found. I'm so confused.

I believe the wallet in question is a 24 word LND Aezeed, correct? If so I think only certain wallets support it. I have restored one on bluewallet before, but not sure why you are getting a zero balance if you're sure you have sats on chain. I think you can restore aezeed wallets on Zeus too.

This is what I found—and confirm it imports Umbrel wallets into BlueWallet

You said you aren’t able to hit “import”. Is that still the case?

It did restore to aezeed wallet. And it seems like it is missing addresses or something.

modulo 8mo ago

This is a rabbit hole—still looking down it.

In the meantime, did you try importing your seed phrase into Zeus?

try this, it’s option 5 from the link

https://community.umbrel.com/t/how-to-restore-your-node-wallet-updated/3602

Using Sparrow wallet method, only for onchain funds

This method will NOT restore your LN channels, only the onchain wallet! To restore funds from LN channels you still need to do the “normal procedure” explained in the point 1 in this guide.

Install Sparrow desktop wallet

Go to Cryptography Toolkit and download the HTML file onto your computer.

Open that HTML file in “offline mode” (no internet) and select “aezeed Cipher Seed Scheme” from Tools. Then go to the 2nd tab “Decode Mnemonic”.

Paste your 24 words into the “Mnemonic” field.

Trying this now. Thanks a lot for the help.

We did some zap tests on this note… we made six attempts to⚡zap this note, using your lightning address starting with "norm3", over a period of about 2 hours. In each case, we found that your lightning address server did not respond correctly. You might want to look into using a cloud-based Lightning node which is optimized for Nostr zaps, to get your zaps working.
