* ` lnd ` now [ supports the new RBF cooperative close
135
- flow] ( https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/pull/9610 ) . Unlike the old
136
- flow, this version now uses RBF to enable either side to increase their fee
137
- rate using their _ own_ channel funds. This removes the old "negotiation"
138
- logic that could fail, with a version where either side can increase the fee
139
- on their coop close transaction using their channel balance.

141
- This new feature can be activated with a new config flag:
135
+ flow] ( https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/pull/9610 ) . This flow is based
136
+ on a new protocol ` option_simple_close ` defined with the bolt proposal
137
+ [ 1205] ( https://github.com/lightning/bolts/pull/1205 )
138
+ Unlike the old flow, this version now uses RBF to enable either side to
139
+ increase their fee rate using their _ own_ channel funds.
140
+ This replaces the old "negotiation" logic that could fail, with a version
141
+ where either side can increase the fee on their coop close transaction using
142
+ their channel balance.
143

144
+ Channel peers must support the ` option_simple_close ` for this new protocol to
145
+ work. This new feature can be activated with a new config flag:
142
146
` --protocol.rbf-coop-close ` .

With this new co-op close type, users can issue multiple ` lncli closechannnel `
145
149
commands with increasing fee rates to use RBF to bump an existing signed co-op

close transaction.

151
152
+ Please note this feature is not compatible with older LND versions.
153
+ When closing channels with peers running older versions, fee bumping the
154
+ closing transaction would be done via CPFP.
155
+
156
+ Regarding interoperation cross implementations, it currently only works
157
+ with Eclair v0.12.0 or up. Interop with other implementations should work
158
+ as they roll out support for this protocol.
159

160
+ This protocol currently does not support the channel types:
161
+ - Taproot channels
162
+ - Taproot asset channels
