Never in my life have I paid 200 sats to move 200k sats on lightning. We're supposed to withdraw our funds by June but when I try to send, it says route failed and just wants me to up the max fee. I went up to 1% of my stacker news stack and yet same message. What is the issue? Where is it failing? Anybody else experiencing this?

The issue could be there isn’t a route to your node. Or that there isn’t a cheap route.
Are you?

Thanks for the response, @k00b
How do I go about figuring out how much the route(s) that it can find will cost? I seem to just need to make invoice after invoice until suddely I paid enough to the network?
Well I read the lightning service here was shutting down in June. I equated that with needing to withdraw. Maybe not?

It depends on where your node is but if your node is reachable it should route at ~1% or less of the invoice amount. If your node isn’t reachable, it won’t work. Does your node have enough liquidity and channels?

You should withdraw your sats, but nothing is going happen suddenly in June except you won’t be able to add sats to your wallet. You’ll only be able to withdraw them at some point.
