Good day all  Grin

I want to know your thoughts on the safety of the lightning network. I would like some consolation and clear up some misunderstandings.


If I sent a lightning network transactions off-chain and it is confirmed, what is there to stop me sending the on-chain transaction to another wallet I own. When the lightning network channel is closed, then it is no longer available?


Sorry if this sounds stupid Smiley

There is no safety at the lightning at work it is completely up to the development team at the bag holders but if they choose to pay you or not. That is why nobody uses the lightning at work. Just giving up the confirmation system for a system that but all of the control at the original team.
