Last night I was playing with the tools in thunderhub and Lightning Terminal for the first time, trying to manage and balance my lightning channels. I closed a couple of channels, I did some loop outs, loop ins, and I used the swap tool in thunderhub, as well as the rebalancing tool. I went to bed with 2.7 million sats in my node, and I woke up to 2.5 million sats and no idea where the missing 200k are. Any ideas on how to troubleshoot or understand what is happening? ---

Okay, I think it has something to do with this channel: [https://i.imgur.com/YXh8L69.png](https://i.imgur.com/YXh8L69.png) I started this 1 million capacity and tried to balance it, but now its only showing the following balances: Local Balance 385,982 Sats Remote Balance 353,651 Sats Where’s the missing 200k from this channel? ---

Alright, after further investigation in the “Ride the Lightning” app, I checked the channel information with regards to the above channel, and it says there are 260k sats that are in “Unsettled Balance”. I think these may be my missing sats, though I haven’t figured out how to get them.

[https://i.imgur.com/FFCEDYj.png](https://i.imgur.com/FFCEDYj.png) I assume I will get those sats back whenever these expire. I guess this has something to do with how I rebalanced these channels. Trying to learn, lol. ---
