Yes, it is possible for a Lightning Network payment to appear in transaction logs but not in the final balance due to issues such as pending transactions, routing failures, or expired invoices. Payments on the Lightning Network rely on active channels and successful routing. If a channel lacks sufficient liquidity or the payment path fails, the transaction may not fully settle, even though it shows as initiated in logs.
