Good news for anyone who had sats stuck on Lolli: you can get them out now.
I stacked some sats on there years ago and just left them. After Thesis* bought Lolli earlier this year, withdrawals were turned off completely. The Mezo integration that followed also felt pretty shady.
But I found out last week that you can now withdraw to a Lightning Address. I tested it, and it worked.
A few things I ran into:
- It wouldn't take my Phoenix LN address. I'm guessing a custodial wallet would work, but I didn't want to install one to try.
- I sent everything to Minibits, then forwarded the funds to Phoenix.
It was wild seeing a payment for 50x my usual Cashu balance hit the mint, but the Minibits wallet handled it like champs. I did have to make three separate payments to get the full amount moved over to Phoenix.
If you have funds on Lolli, it's worth checking out. Maybe it's also worth downloading the extension to earn bitcoin cashback on your purchases—no referral link here 😅
Nice reporting.
