THE NEXT WIKILEAKS WILL PUBLISH DIRECTLY TO NOSTR.

GOOD MORNING. 🫡

You want channels to be as big as possible to capture rebalance fees. Personally I don't like any channels less than 10m sats.

Any channel less than 1m sats is completely useless imo (for a router)

But you have to balance out the risk for yourself, I can't stress enough, it's possible to lose coins.

Not about nostr. It’s about accessing my node.

Umbrel lightning node stuck loading again…

What’s your go to solution when this happens to ur node?

Ssh restart?

Uninstall / reinstall via umbrel market?

Wyd fellow pleb?

Lol oh of course 🤣🤣🤣 I just zapped enough to get it over the goal

Bitcoin node finally reached 100% sync 🥰 but my lightning node app won’t load & nostr relay isn’t receiving any actions

I’ve rebooted, the only last hole I see in my setup is not having a raspberry pi power supply, but other than that and the apps listed above everything works fine

last year i started an @umbrel node on my linux pc. the #[0] software worked and i opened a channel and funded it. before the bitcoin blockchain downloaded, the computer crashed. i installed a new linux version and restarted. after the restart i installed umbrel again, signed in with the mnemonic keys but unfortunately the funded channel was not there any more. i went to the funding source and executed a closing of the channel to the wallet. i contacted umbrel support and was told that it could take up to 2 weeks to receive the money back to the wallet. now it is almost a year and the money is still not back. i can track it in multiple wallets, i have even the btc address of the funds. the funds did not move anywhere. they are still stuck in the channel where i sent them.

i have asked @umbrel to provide step by step instructions how to get my funds back. it is only a very small amount - less than 250.000 satoshi - but i found it disturbing that @umbrel unfriended me and did not even respond.

i can prove that i own the funds. i have all logs from the source, tx id, channel id, channel onion address, i just do not have the keys due to their weird system. you do not hold your keys of your wallet with umbrel. i asked support a year ago where my funds were and who had them. they told me that no one held them.

i would not recommend umbrel to anyone. i know that there are a lot of people using umbrel and they have no issues but also a lot of people have similar issues and they do not get resolved.

citadel has also a solution for hosting lightning channels and there are videos showing how you can host even without any of them.

umbrel is free but they do not provide any support

Hi folks, quick update for those of you who have channels open with TheHallucinogenicToreador. It appears that the docker containers on my node somehow got fried. I’m working with someone on the umbrel community forum to see if there’s a way of salvaging this without closing out any channels. I’ll keep you posted and apologies again for the inconvenience

Cc: #[0] pls sers and mams, tell me there’s a way of fixing this 🙏🙏
