JonnyJi50127056 on Nostr: When you close the lightning channel, you must first wait for the lightning network ...
When you close the lightning channel, you must first wait for the lightning network to accept the closure, you will see the message "closing channel", the time depends if the channel was closed cooperatively or it was a forced closure, after a few blocks (again , this varies if the closure was forced or cooperative) the Transaction will appear in the mempool and will be shown in the wallet as a Tx to be confirmed and the fees will depend on whether it was a cooperative closure (less fee) or forced (higher fee), at that time you can apply RBF if you want to speed up the possibility of confirmation of the transaction.
