Send latest revocation_secret for channels force-closed by counterparty upon closure confirmation

Open arik-so opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

If the counterparty force-closes with the latest state and we are still able to send them a message over TCP, once the commitment transaction confirms, we could send them the latest revocation secret to allow them immediate access to their balance.

This still needs to be spec'ed, right?

Yup, very much so. It's a medium-term future issue, I think. I imagine the spec should be fairly straightforward (famous last words).
