11/Feb - my instructions do not account for HTLCs which were not yet resolved at time of forced close, will update when I know more
7/Feb - signed by my node'd priv key, should be safe to pay now. Coinos may not work for large amounts, I can accept liquid if you want to save fees and get rid of liquid, ask for L-BTC address if interested.

Thank you for doing this.

  • determine the amount you should send. Note that my node broadcast old state of the channel which is not relevant.
    • lncli (command line): run lncli closedchannels | less , you may need to supply path where lncli is. Search for my channel by typing "/033878". Take value of fields "settled_amount" and "closing_tx_hash".
    • RTL - go to peers -> closed channel, search the channel with xmrk, take "Settled amount" and "Closing transaction hash".
    • others (c-lightning, eclair?) - TODO if needed
  • if the following is too complicated, just estimate on-chain fees you spent on my channel - opening, closing and penalty tx - I should pay for all 3. And send me channel_total_capacity - settled_balance - your_on_chain_fee_estimate.
  • to account exactly for on-chain fees, follow the closing_tx_hash in some blockchain explorer (for example mempool.space) - you need the tx which spends closing_tx_hash, ignore anchors (330 sats outputs) and follow some of the other output.
  • look how much you received from that channel. There will be 3 txs: opening, my incorrect close tx, and your penalty tx.
  • possible complication if your node didn't spend all UTXOs from closing_tx_hash in one tx, seems it didn't happen.
  • verify the text of this gist ("the original post") - see comment below. Send to the address according to the gist, every node has separate address so I can distinguish who sent it. Deduct your on-chain fees for that tx also (or I can refund it later via lightning if too complicated).

Example for Garlic:

  • Channel capacity was 10M sats.
  • closing_tx_hash is b881e337ff7a412df1a1ff0220afb6b4b96102cc71d81b82f570fd32349bab70
  • Penalty tx is https://mempool.space/tx/ef9f566b6d4ac66979ae3b3fade2cf132c5e953f0238d2a2b73fbecba00dd70a , it spends only UTXOs from my closing tx, good. This tx has one UTXO of 9969447 sats, so 10M - 9969447 = 30553 sats was paid in onchain fees, I assume that cost.
  • Imagine Garlic's settled_amount is 5200000 sats (not real). Then Garlic should send me 9969447 - 5200000 = 4769447 sats.

Hall of fame - nodes which returned me funds

Those at least contacted me

and seem ready to return funds, and I am slow to react, so not their fault:

Responded and willing to refund me

No response
