LNBIG was kind enough to supply us with all the commit points of all the channels they force closed on their nodes over the years. This will allow users to sweep those channels using
chantools sweepremoteclosed
with just the seed. Previously those funds wouldn't have been recoverable because they would've required the LNBIG nodes to still be online to send over theper_commit_point
.There are 2454 unspent outputs in such channel force close transactions with a total of 10 BTC.
