nostr:npub1cashappn03s3cl2ljsdntv0v28e2um5lgx4vjctqjt23pcwzjhsqmtdg5l implementation of the #bitcoin Lightning Network is currently unusable with a clear worsening of performance over the last several months.

It was more functional at launch than it is today.

It is easier and quicker to use the main chain if w/d from cash app.

The community looks to the app and the company as a representation for what the future could potentially look like when bitcoin is used for payments.

Do better.

I’m only calling this out because I care. It’s truly out of love.

Hey nostr:npub1dld9hn3gsgtkh7atl26s8gd49qfjjkpdw8ztap9mk4n7vhq60y0satfd8s! I’m a PM on the Bitcoin team at nostr:npub1cashappn03s3cl2ljsdntv0v28e2um5lgx4vjctqjt23pcwzjhsqmtdg5l. We appreciate the flag and your patience while we completed our internal reviews — we've made some improvements that will improve Lightning reliability going forward.

Do you still have any pending transactions? Are you able to retry and let me know how it goes? If you or anyone else ever experiences issues, feel free to ping me directly here, anytime.

Thank you for your feedback and care for bitcoin, Lightning, and our UX. We appreciate you. 🙏⚡🤝

Hey Michael, thanks for the response. I only made the note because I sincerely care about bitcoin and Cashapp. Thanks for looking into this. Both of my pending payments cleared. It took days for one of them to clear.

Let me know if there is anything I can do to help. 🫂

I will test now.

Totally. Our entire team is passionate and cares deeply about providing a magical bitcoin experience to all our customers. So thanks for (1) holding us to high bar and (2) actively flagging when we can do better. 🫂

This payment went through instantly with no issues at all. Perfect.
