Cannot open channel. #1266

Open anrapas opened 5 years ago

anrapas commented 5 years ago

Description

After being funded and autopiloted chennel open (public key 0327049d8d63f0c40193cdf3afc61817c8647808a4e482de0716fcef74e6d92ebf) I've close it and disable autopilot (I funded with 100000 sats and after closing and opening 3 channels with autopilot, I'd only received 12674 sats, rest lost). Now I'm trying to send this ammount to another wallet but cannot open any channel.

Any suggestion?

On chain fees maybe? Right now BTC fees are in the order of 20000+ sats for an on-chain transaction. Opening and closing channels are are on-chain transactions, so it adds up quickly. Just a thought, maybe this could explain your "loss".

@anrapas Your funds probably were in pending waiting for the timelock to expire. By now they should be in your wallet.

The minimum balance to open a channel is 20,000 sat. You don't have enough fund so that is why.
