We are completing a planned Lightning migration designed to deliver a faster, more stable, and more reliable experience. Lightning has always been labeled as experimental in the app because upgrades like this can introduce temporary limitations while the underlying architecture transitions.
All user funds remain safe. The temporary limitations only affect the Lightning functionality used to move funds, not the funds themselves.
During the migration, some actions may be unavailable until the upgrade completes.
What This Means Right Now
Creating a new Lightning wallet is temporarily unavailable.
Existing Lightning wallets may show limited functionality while channels close and reopen as part of the planned migration.
Some users may see channels closing or delayed restore behavior. These effects are expected during this transition and do not impact fund safety.
Why This Is Happening
This upgrade is intentional and part of our long-term plan to improve performance and stability. The behaviors you may see are tied to the migration process, not unexpected issues.
What We’re Doing
Completing the migration as quickly as practicable.
Monitoring all channel transitions to ensure funds remain secure.
Preparing the release of the improved Lightning experience.
We appreciate your patience during this short transition period and will keep you updated you as soon as the upgraded Lightning features are live.
