Core Lightning Warns of Vulnerabilities, Urges Offline Mode

This is a trust event for the Lightning Network's routing layer, not just a technical patch note. The call to go offline means liquidity providers and routing nodes face an immediate operational tradeoff between network participation and security, which could temporarily reduce routing capacity and increase payment failure rates. Since the details are embargoed, the market is pricing in unknown risk; the key question is whether the fix arrives before node operators' patience or user confidence erodes. Watch for whether major routing nodes comply or stay online, as that signal will shape perceived network resilience.
