According to an official announcement, BlueWallet has abandoned its lightning connection to IndHub. BlueWallet will terminate the actual operation of the managed lightning, which means that BlueWallet customers of the BTC lightning network must send to the connection point to apply the BlueWallet lighting service.

Calle, a lightning developer, posted the change on Twitter, telling Cointelegraph:

"the most important thing is that people are not prone to anxiety, and beginners suddenly move out of their chain stock funds or incorrect lightning account balances."

Lightning networks are second-tier payment solutions based on bitcoin. Lightning networks are used to push a small amount of bitcoin, called Satoshis or SAT, usually using lightning wallets.

Blue Wallet is a popular Lightning Network wallet with more working capital than 42BTC ($1 million). According to Amoss, its largest channel has the capacity of 4BTC ($95000). BlueWallet is a popular lightning wallet that is highly recommended by famous bitcoin gamers.

Calle continued: "the key is to realize that IndHub is a protocol that helps you combine your wallet with your account." The wallet (in this case) is BlueWallet, but other wallets also support LndHub (such as Alby or Zeus).

"the account has been closed, not LndHub or Bluewallet itself. The accounts here are hosted by the BlueWallet team, and they don't want to do this anymore.

Although the customer can still get his SAT, it will no longer be possible to create a new or refill existing lightning wallet on the LndHub node. BlueWallet made it clear that the lightning connection point transmitted by SAT customers to BlueWallet should be moved as soon as possible.

The service will be shut down on April 30, so it is important for BlueWallet users to transfer SAT to another service or wallet of their choice. However, the average Bitcoin wallet will not be affected by this shift.

While some may see this trend as a thorn in the flesh of Lightning, according to the site, it is important to note that BlueWallet will "only support self-service escrow solutions". This shift is designed to promote decentralized solutions and self-control.
