I'm so confused about #lightning. Can anyone help me with this question please: If I opened a channel with say 500k sats, and I've just been spending spending spending, and now I have almost no sats left, and I want to top up that balance, e.g. add more sats to the same channel to fill it back up again, how do I do that?
I've got Thunderhub running, and I can see that channel, and I've even transferred more on chain #btc to my lightning node, so it's just sat there in the on chain balance. How do I get it into the existing channel? Or do I have to open a new channel? Thank you so much!
