After almost 5 years of operations, our node suffered a catastrophic channel.db corruption error due to a power loss. We tried restoration procedures over the past few days, but unfortunately, we had no luck. It appears we will not be able to restore our node and keep the channels intact. With heavy hearts, we have to start from scratch. We ask for your support to force-close our channels to recover the funds. This day had to come eventually. It's the price we pay as early adopters. Many lessons have been learned. However, this will not mean the end. We will get back up, dust ourselves off, and carry on. We are grateful for your understanding and support 🧡. --- Humble routing node, connecting the Southern tip of the African continent to the world.
