Telegram's bot for P2P exchanges with the Lightning Network, lnp2pbot, has died due to a hack.

There are no backups. It is the end of a tool that has allowed thousands (mostly in Latin America) to buy and sell Bitcoin privately.

Therefore, my Telegram channel that used the same bot has also stopped working.

It's a real shame. Strength to negrunch, the developer. He has given us a tool that for many marked a before and after in P2P.

Let's hope that everything goes better next time. And let's remember, to have backups in different and strategic places.
