What are your fee settings for autowithdrawals? Setting max fee total to 1 is important if you don't have a direct channel (which your cashu backend probably does not)

Thanks! I just set it to 1. 🫡

Checking your wallet logs might also help, I am pretty sure it's a fee issue, especially for such small payments. I used to have the same issue before we added max fee total because 1% of small payments aren't enough for any base fee.

I do see some warnings and errors that indicate this.

Hopefully the fee setting fixes it.

Wow, which wallet are you using? A CLTV delta of 547 means your wallet is very far away from SN in the lightning network. The fee setting is probably not going to fix that but a high CLTV also means that we need a lot of hops so more nodes will want some fees.

edit: Oh, you already mentioned you're using a Cashu backend. I would consider switching the mint you use or ask the operator to open more/better channels.

Oh wow I didn’t know that! I’ll look into it. I’m using Minibits rn. Not sure if I can change mints but it’s relatively easy to reinstall Alby Hub (perks of not having channels I suppose).

Mhh, minibits is a pretty popular ecash wallet. I'll try to get in contact with the operator (I think I know them). Maybe we are actually the ones with bad channels but we have over 150 channels and I don't know how many they have.

I asked the operator in https://t.me/MinibitsWallet if they can also see the high CLTV delta from their end. I would suggest to wait with switching mints since the next mint can be even worse if even minibits has this problem.

Thanks. Please keep me posted. I installed Alby Hub several times with different mints so I’m actually not sure if I’m running Minibits or not. 😄

If Minibits doesn’t see the high delta, I might do a fresh install just to be sure.

It’s been hours and I haven’t seen the CLTV delta error in the logs btw. 👍
