umbrel:

when a bitcoiner installs umbrel and umbrel asks for a seed, the bitcoiner thinks that umbrel is self-custody, remembers the seed (and even the pw).

but umbrel is not self-custody. when i tried to restore the lightning node with the correct seed, it showed the channel capacity as the money i had sent to the node but the node did not show my funds. i asked umbrel support. there is one guy on umbrel support: dartcoin. he is very condescending and arrogant, accusing every umbrel user of being stupid, not having read his instructions or just being a liar. i had no interest in dealing with that and gave up. that was a year ago.

a year later i tried to restore my node again. i put my seed into the bluewallet and got a wallet with a bc1 bitcoin address. the wallet is read-only !!! with my seed

who has the private key to my funds?

But... #[2]works for Umbrel?

I'm not an expert, but... How do you can get a only read wallet with a seed?

they put it to lightning then to bitcoin. different networks. umbrel is the only wallet in the world which provides no private key with seed

No I have NO relation with Umbrel. I just wrote guides for Umbrel users.

How do you get a read-only wallet from a seed?

- did you read my guides? I wrote quite few exactly about how to do that.

- did you ever heard about XPUB? That is how you manage a watch-only wallet.

I readed them, lo hice. Es al usuario al que le pregunto ya que anda despistado por decir poco.

Si, asi es, es uno de estos que no sabe nada, pero solo da "consejos"... 😂

Lo que le he entendido es que ha metido la semilla y ha obtenido una watch-only.

Y que quiere restaurar canales solo con una semilla y sin el backup.

Y que tú eres malo.

En fin, todo con mucho sentido eh 🤌🥲
