Yeah a few days before it all goes down I would force close and settle everything on chain if I was carrying any real liquidity. For me I'll just empty my zap channel to a custodial wallet and Zeus can pay to force close the channel on their end if they want to. I'm not paying fees for that small change.

Yes I understand is better to be safe and not risk. How could I know when to do? Maybe I just do in the next days to be safe 🤔

Thank you so much! I didn't know about the activation block thanks for the info!!

I knew it was a one way problem but didn't think about it in terms of miners. I'd say if the most part of transactions uses OP_RETURN then wouldn't make sense to activate it because less tx less fees? Just my first thoughts tho 🤔

Getting a few extra block rewards in a two week period outweighs a year's worth of fees right now.
