LNbits
Multi-user wallet management system
LNbits
LNbits is a simple multi-user and account system for Lightning Network that can be used for creating separate Lightning wallets for friends and family members. You can also create multiple accounts for yourself to mitigate the risk of exposing applications to your full balance via unique API keys for each wallet.
LNbits is packaged with tools to help manage funds, such as a table of transactions, line chart of spending, export to CSV, and more to come. It provides an extendable platform for expanding Lightning Network functionality via LNbits extension framework, and can also be used as a fallback wallet for the LNURL scheme.
This release includes several important patch updates. All users are encouraged to update.
Key highlights include:
- UI funding source retries
- Batch invoice polling and persistence for Strike Wallet
- Case insensitive search for users

🚨 Reminder that legacy LNbits users (users who first installed a version of LNbits lower than v0.12.2) can access their existing superuser account by logging in to LNbits using the user ID from their legacy admin account. As of LNbits v0.12.2 on umbrelOS (previous update), a fresh install of LNbits walks the user through creating a superuser account.
This release updates the LNbits app on umbrelOS from version 0.12.2 to 0.12.10. It includes numerous bug fixes and improvements, along with a new user manager for easily monitoring users and wallets on the server.

This release introduces the LNbits node manager which allows you to manage your Lightning channels directly from within your LNbits. The node manager works with Core Lightning and LND and we plan to add support for more Lightning backends soon. You can activate the node manager in your LNbits admin panel, which will allow you to:
- Manage your Lightning channels directly from within your LNbits.
- View the transaction history on your node to see a list of all incoming and outgoing payments
- Share a public node page with others who want to open a channel to your node.
We have upgraded the API framework that we use in LNbits. That means that most extensions need to be update to work with this release. Please log in as an admin user and update your extensions to the latest version after upgrading your LNbits.

You will find a new Security panel in your Manage Server AdminUI that you can access as the super user. All features are opt-in and are also accessible via the LNbits API.
The Security panel has six components:
- Server logs 📝
- IP blocker 🚫
- Rate limiter 🐌
- Security notifications 🔔
- Killswitch 🪓
- Watchdog 🐕 (coming soon)

⚠️ This update fixes a critical vulnerability in LNbits. Please update as soon as possible.
IMPORTANT NOTE ON EXTENSIONS: New versions of LNbits now have all extensions removed by default. To install extensions, you need to visit your super admin page and install them from there. To do this, open your LNbits app and replace the umbrel.local:3007 URL with umbrel.local:3007/uuidv4/<your-unique-password-shown-in-the-lnbits-app-store-page>. This will redirect you to the super admin page where you can install extensions. These extensions can then be enabled/disabled by any user. Existing LNbits users that are updating their app in Umbrel may need to hard refresh their browser on the extensions page in order to manage installed extensions.
