Withdraw via Lightning to Muun

By the CloudMineCrypto teamUpdated 5 min read

The short answer

In Muun, tap Receive and copy your Lightning address or invoice. Then in CloudMineCrypto open Wallet → Withdraw, pick Bitcoin Lightning, paste it, enter at least 0.00000010BTC and confirm. A network fee of 0.00000005BTC is deducted (live, may change).

Key takeaways

  • Choose Lightning in both Muun and CloudMineCrypto. The networks have to match.
  • Copy a Lightning address (name@domain) or a Lightning invoice (starts with lnbc) from Muun; don’t type it by hand.
  • Lightning invoices can expire; a fixed-amount invoice must match the amount you withdraw.
  • Muun is a wallet app: back up its recovery phrase or login before you receive.

Definition · Lightning invoice

A one-time payment request, starting with lnbc, that can include a fixed amount and usually expires after a set time. A Lightning address (name@domain) works like a reusable email-style address instead.

If Muun offers a Lightning address, it is the easiest option: it doesn’t expire and works for any amount within the limits. An invoice works too, but it must match the amount and can expire. Lightning withdrawals have a maximum of 0.00004000BTC per request.

What happens after you confirm?

Your request is validated first. Most are processed automatically; some wait for a manual review (limits, anti-abuse checks or identity verification), which takes longer. Once sent, a Lightning payment usually arrives in seconds.

Why isn’t my Lightning withdrawal to Muun working?

  • “Below minimum amount”: the minimum for Lightning is shown under the amount field (currently 0.00000010BTC). Keep mining or check back once your balance is higher.
  • “Invalid address”: copy it again from Muun and check it is a Lightning address (name@domain) or a Lightning invoice (starts with lnbc).
  • Invoice expired or amount mismatch: create a new invoice in Muun; if it has a fixed amount, withdraw exactly that.
  • Received less than requested: the network fee (0.00000005BTC) is deducted from the amount sent. Compare amounts in the same unit (BTC vs sats).
  • Email or login errors: verify your email from the button next to the error, or add a Google or Apple login.

Still stuck? Email [email protected] with the network, wallet and time of the request.
