I've updated the guide about advanced usage of Zeus embedded node.
PLEASE, to all Zeus users, is better to read now this guide before you end up in a bad situation that is explained in this new section, so you can avoid this disaster situation. I saw some new users doing mistakes and I tested myself this situation, so I could write this guide. I do not want you to end up like this, but shit can happen all the time and people do mistakes.
Added a new section:
DISASTER CASE - You open a channel with very low fee and is stuck in limbo
DO NOT DO RBF ON PENDING OPENING CHANNELS! DO ONLY CPFP or better use Mempool Accelerator.
🇬🇧 - Zeus LN Node - Advanced Usage
🇪🇸 - Nodo Zeus LN - Uso Avanzado
If you need me to add anything else to the guide, please let me know. I tried to make it as short is possible, including links to more documentation.
Please bookmark it and read it. It could save you a lot of trouble.
Just a little nit I noticed that might confuse people:
Calling it "replacement CPFP transaction" is misleading, since it is not CPFP. You are replacing the original channel funding transaction. I would just call it "replacement transaction"
Right, make sense. Thanks. I will add also a link to explain what is CPFP and how to do it.
Thanks for the updates! Also an area I need to research. My Zeus app wouldn’t open properly for a few weeks. I chatted with Evan K and I unfortunately had to force closure of the LN channels I set up and paid for. Now the sats are on chain and I need to reopen channel(s) in hopes they don’t lock up again like last time. Time for me to hit the Darth Coin Zeus guides again!
I always said:
If more people will read first my guides, before use, will have less troubles.
I do not write all these 60+ guides just for the sake of writing them...
If it’s important you find a way, if not you find an excuse! I gotta get on it!
Awesome PoW!
