What's one Lightning Network feature or concept you'd like to learn more about?

- reply

We needed time to secure the remaining funds and also investigate before announcing to the public.

2024-03-26 15:55:02

- reply

Thank you. We are still investigating. So far it appears to come from the hosting provider. Although we can’t conclude without proves.

2024-03-26 15:44:55

- reply

Funds were swept from onchain to a strange address.

2024-03-26 15:44:03

- reply

We’ve tried figuring out (still trying) how they got in. Our seeds are stored offline. Passwords are secure, nothing on the logs that can help. It appears the hacker got access to the cmd and that can only be a fault from the hosting provider.
