Hi! ACINQ dev here.
Their German is also not the best

Clicking on "Payment options" reveals a legacy LNURL authentication scheme. Interesting. Don't know anything about the details though. What is the difference to the standard scheme?
It's for backward compat. Our legacy app had a non-standard implementation of LNURL-auth. Migrated wallets will default to the legacy mode.
There is a swap-in wallet using descriptors and a final wallet using zpub now! I think this wasn't shown to the user before.
Yes, the swap-in wallet is new and derives from the seed (in the previous version it was controlled by ACINQ). The final wallet was there before.
There seems to be a minor bug regarding fiat currency however. I only see "?!
If it persists after restarting the app, please report to support.
So I still have to see splicing in effect. I'll report back when that was the case.
One way to try is to send funds to your own phoenix bitcoin address, and bump the fee of the on-chain transaction.
This way you will do:
  1. a splice-out (1 input, 2 outputs)
  2. then a splice-cpfp (1 input, 1 output)
  3. then finally a splice-in (2 inputs, 1 output) and go back to the initial state. You can follow all that on mempool.space and learn quite a bit. It will cost you a few thousand sat in mining fees.

Hi, thanks for joining SN just to reply!

Haha, no worries, it was a funny error :)

I see. I'll read the source code for the details

Ahh, ok, didn't know there was a zpub already somewhere. Was it shown in one of these JSON blobs? I know there was some JSON for channel details at least for example iirc
If it persists after restarting the app, please report to support.
It's fixed now! :)

Ahh, right. Makes sense
Thanks for this awesome wallet btw :)

What happens with L1 payments if the miners fees don't adhere to my configured fee policy?
Missed that one. If that happens the swap will stay pending, and will be reattempted next time you start the wallet. As mentioned in our blog post, if you are not in a rush this allows you to minimize fees by allowing a certain max budget.

Is there a portal or something where people can check the status of their swap?
