Does anyone know if #BlueWallet is still maintained?
Since they deprecated the custodial LN wallets and the announcement regarding self custody LN I haven’t heard anything in months.
Discussion
I do not know actually… and you are right… it’s been a while since I heard from them last time…
GitHub is active.
I have bluewallet on my phone. it is still working.
I had contact with the dev in febuary.
Don't believe he abonded it since then.
seems fine
Its my go to wallet. I love because i can have multiple wallets in one interface i can have a watch only wallet setup with my hardware i can send multiple transactions in one transaction bluewallet is one of the best on-chain wallet
existing code seems to be working for mainnet wallet + LN wallet - anyone find a bug or issue should report i think

They didn't exactly deprecate custodial LN. They just stopped hosting the sample LN server because it was too much headache and liability. You can connect bluewallet to getalby, lnbits, and your own self-hosted lightning node running lndhub or a clone thereof. Bluewallet last made a release this July. The self-custody LN is actually available in the latest #bluewallet, it's only hidden behind a developer unlock sequence.
nostr:npub1lxktpvp5cnq3wl5ctu2x88e30mc0ahh8v47qvzc5dmneqqjrzlkqpm5xlc has instructions on how to use it. The following this from his guide: "Bluewallet recently introduced the LDK node option, but is hidden. You will need to click 10 times on the new Lightning Wallet button and will appear the option for LDK node wallet."

They’re falling way behind Zeus and other wallets that support Lightning but their on-chain tools are still good. I wish they would give the whole app an overhaul, it’s really showing its age.
