Last Notes
I've fixed a bug and added 300 more ancient channels from ln2me.
Make sure to run the latest version (v0.13.7), especially if you got an error when trying before!
https://github.com/lightninglabs/chantools/releases/tag/v0.13.7 #note1uxd…zf7n
PSA: If you ever had channels with LNBIG in the early days (2018-2021), read this!
If you think you still have sats in such channels that you couldn't recover (e.g. your node broke down, no channel backup), there now might be a way.
You only require your seed.
Try running `chantools sweepremoteclosed` on the latest version (v0.13.6): https://github.com/lightninglabs/chantools/releases/tag/v0.13.6
There are over 2.5k channels and over 10 BTC unspent! Big thanks to LNBIG for providing the data necessary and MrDonty for the idea/initiative.
Please RT for visibility!
More info on how to run the command:

Cool! But please add a warning that channel funding transactions should never ever be RBFed! That‘s the main thing users tend to screw up when exporting lnd‘s keys to another wallet
I can now be zapped as well ⚡️😎
