Fee issues

Open antellia opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

The wallet sent its first automatic transaction with absurdly low fees - about 1200 sats. The amount is substantial enough for me to care. Now what should I do?

Don't you think this is something worth addressing, @hsjoberg?

Hey. We are investigating issues with the API server that Blixt is using.

Do you have a spare phone? If you restore your seed there, you will be able to double-spend the transaction, which will cancel out the opening on the first device.

Otherwise the low-fee channel opening will eventually time out after some week or so.

Experiencing this issue with my first automatic channel open as well that was set at 1 sat/vbyte. It would be nice to be able to set a minimum sat/vbyte for automatic first channel open or just remove the automatic channel open feature altogether if it continues to have issues setting proper on-chain fees.

If the low-fee channel opening times out, we should be able to manually open a channel correct?
