I would assume that’s how it works once it expires. Im still trying to help them figure out what’s happening with mine. I can’t use it for more than ~50sat transactions

Ya i tried something yesterday and it didn't work. I forgot to close my channel before i deleted the app and reinstalled it so now my channel is in the void somewhere. So im thinking it will expire and sats sent to my on chain wallet. Im back on wallet of satoshi

Shoot. Well those should still be recoverable. There’s a seed phrase for a reason. Just a waiting game I guess.

One time I couldn't move large amounts. And what I did was, I just emptied the channel out with whatever let me sent. A lot of transactions to muun hahaha but i emptied it. Ive lost so many sats im tired 😫 hahahaha

I feel that. The irony— I’ve lost more sats trying to self custody lightning than I even have with a non-custodial like CoinOS or wallet of satoshi (I know they have self custody now)

Facts 💯

What happened to the sats you had?

They still in the channel active. I cant recover them because i didn't back it properly. The channel will eventually close. I hope
