If any of you lost sats running a lightning node, dm me and I might be able to help you recover your sats, learned so much today!
Don't let those precious sats get away

I will definitely keep this in mind! Good for the time being but who knows lol
Do you want to write up something to explain it? It would be useful for the #Nodestrich community. We’ve had to solve these kinds of problems before.
chantools ftw. Just holler if you have any weird cases. We’ve seen it all
Purge fee was 15 s/b. I attempted to open a channel for 9 s/b.
Lnd showed it as pending to open but transaction was not present in my local mempool nor in public mempool.
Error in local bitcoin core that transaction fee was below purge fee.
After 3 months the channel opening expiry time was showing a negative value suggesting it would never open.
I couldn't identify utxo associated with the channel opening.
I ended up abandoning the channel 😱 not sure what happened to the sats... Hoping I didn't lose them.
Open tx has to confirm within two weeks or it’s invalid.
Abandonchan was prob fine as long as it wasn’t on block explorers. If you want to be extra safe spend the original funding output
Oh and you didn’t lose the sats. After abandonchan they should be reflected in your balance accurately
I couldn't locate the funding output. I'm probably fine 😂 thanks nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5
I have sats stuck in a CLN node and in an Eclair node. Can you help?
Nope you're on your own, have you tried reading the source code for both? Probably answers in there 👨💻😎
you the man
You know umbrel? Sats are stuck in an “opening channel” for months. The progress just stopped and they are locked but the channel actually never opened.
I "lost" a lot of sats on forced closures. Pretty sure that's not what you're referring to though.
