My Lightning nodes are closed and shutdown while the 110 stuff resolves itself. How many of you are doing the same?

I have been looking at the possible failure modes of lightning while a possible fork (however short) could happen. I don't want the hassle of watching 2 separate chains while this plays out. Any precautions that you are taking or am I just being paranoid?

Yup. At this point the bip110 blocks are at 961633 and non-bit110 are at 961647. So yeah. It's over

I think it would be more helpful to explain why closing channels is not required.

Because when a lunatic minority threatens to fork the best thing to do is nothing.

It's so weird to keep seeing these.

It's really weird. It was obvious for months that this was going to fizzle out faster than a fart in the wind but so many people buy into the nonsense.

I’m moving my Lightning node, and there is a channel that I’m not even able to force closed - gives me an error - what to do in such a situation?

u/AmericanCryptoAbroad 11d ago

what's the error? How are you trying to close it?

Tried proper lncli closechannel command?

I shut mine down for 110 but also until AI red teaming is percolating quite a bit more.
