reply on: Lightning Channel Question (Umbrel) \ stacker news ~bitcoin

I don't think you can pick the channel incoming to you.

You can pick the outgoing channel when you are sending out.

thanks for the info. Therefore I would need to rebalance the channels if I wanted outbound liquidity on the channel that hasn't received sats yet?

Yes but if you only have 2 active channel it may be hard to re-balance at a cost effective fee.

So mentally prepare for the re-balancing not to go through.

gotcha! Appreciate the help!
