Mutiny wallet on android (1.7.8) stopped accepting my password
96 sats \ 12 comments \ @BallLightning 18 Jun bitcoin
Mutiny wallet on android stopped accepting my perfectly valid password today. It says wrong password.
I restored my wallet, but whenever i try to use the encrypt functionality, immediately after it fails to accept the very same password i just entered.
It seems that somebody broke something there.
Quick update... Both send end receive functions don't work also. They both get stuck indefinately. Receive on generating invoice, send on paying an invoice.
Something is seriously broken.

Are you still experiencing issues? I cannot send or receive. Perhaps @TonyGiorgio can tell shed some light on this?

Same here, looks like a general issue.

I noticed some funkiness this morning. It's very slow and I can't generate an invoice. Yesterday it was a little laggy too.

Do I have to remind you all my warnings? Not your server = not your node... #453267

I haven't seen your warnings. I am on stacker.news since 2 weeks ago.
Nevertheless, do you think the Mutiny servers are compromised at the moment? Do you think this may cause the "incorrect password" issue?

I always raised a warning: if you do not run your own Mutiny server, it is not different than any WoS. People usually just hit start and run it as default with mutinywallet.com domain (see above). The rest, Mutiny is a good LDK node, no problem with that.

I got that. I just explained why I had no way of knowing about your warnings.

No are not "compromised" in the bad sense. I am sure right now was just a small issue in the servers functioning, nothing that cannot be "repaired".
Only that you are NOT the one that will control all the aspects of running it. If that default domain mutinywallet.com get seized or cancelled or whatever... you will not be able to access your Mutiny node. Yes, the funds are safe, because you own the keys, but is meaningless if you cannot access them.
Then if those servers where is running the domain and the node dependencies, is having some issues (like now) also will affect ALL their users.
Running your own Mutiny server could avoid these issues and you will be the sole responsible for your own infrastructure.

I don't get something. Since Mutiny supports eCash and eCash notes are supposedly stored on your device (or maybe the mutiny server), how are they recovered by the passphrase? If they are on the server, then running your own server won't recover these.

Ecash part have nothing to do with your LDK Mutiny node. is something else, separate. Only that is integrated into Mutiny for easy onboarding poor new users that cannot afford to open a decent LN channel.

Well, ecash ballance does get restored (tested by me). And all I've read is that ecash is stored locally.
