LNbits, the open-source Bitcoin Lightning wallet and account system, warned users to stop their LNbits servers after a wave of attacks, according to PANews’ November 9, 2026 roundup.
In a subsequent update included in the same report, LNbits said it had disabled all instances on its hosted SaaS platform, my.lnbits.com, as a security precaution. It said all services would be restored within 24 hours. That was a restoration estimate, not confirmation that service had resumed.
Server warning and hosted-service shutdown
The initial warning, posted on X, asked all LNbits users to stop their servers while the team prepared multiple security patches. LNbits said it would provide further updates as soon as possible.
The later notice specifically addressed the shutdown of instances on my.lnbits.com. The roundup did not report that the earlier stop-server warning had been lifted.
The supplied report did not specify the attack method, identify the affected software versions or say whether funds had been lost. It also did not confirm that patches had been released or services restored by publication.
