I created a channel with core lightning with Push_msats parameter and quickly pushed a lot of funds into the peer side of the channel.
lightning-cli fundchannel push_msats=30480
I did that to improve my ability to receive funds. I was able to receive more funds up to the channel capacity. But this was a big mistake. why? Now, this channel has far more funds than capacity, and when you close the channel, what is the channel capacity? Are the funds you pushed to the peerside with push_masters forever gone?
The peer effectively “stolen”:-(
If you made a payment instead, you would have received at least some products/services in return for that payment. Now, the pushed Saturday will disappear forever.
The channel has been closed.
Can someone help me understand if there is a way to get those Saturdays back from the peers?
