I’m looking for some bitcoin lightning advice and Stacker News is the place with people who know what’s up.
Mutiny wallet is shutting down at the year’s end. I’ve been trying to get my sats off of it and I’m finding out it’s not as simple as just: (a) enter amount, (b) send. Obviously, LN is not a strength of mine.
My goal is to get the entire balance off Mutiny, I’ve removed some, but am failing at getting all the sats off.
Seems to me that my balance is larger than my outbound limit and that’s the issue. The error message reads “We do not have enough balance to pay the given amount,” which is a little odd because the balance shown is way above the amount I tried to send. I tried several amounts, decreasing them each time, with the same message. When I finally entered an amount beneath the “outbound” threshold, then the error message does not appear. Then, it does seem like the tx would go through (I backed out).
My guess is that the error message should really say, “Whoops, you’re trying to send more than your outbound limit allows,” or something like that. Anyway, I’m stuck.
So, what are my options?
- Open another channel?
- Switch to on chain transfer?
- Other option?
And what would be the benefits and detriments/costs of each?
I’d be appreciative of any help.
