Loop Client Release Notes

New Features

Static Address Open Channel — This release introduces the ability to open Lightning channels directly from static address deposits. Instead of performing a loop-in to get funds into your Lightning node and then opening a channel as separate steps, you can now combine both into a single operation using the new loop openchannel command.

  • Consolidate deposits into channels: If you have one or more static address deposits sitting on-chain, you can open a channel to any peer using those funds directly, skipping the loop-in swap and its associated fees.
  • Flexible funding: Use the --utxo flag to select specific deposit outpoints, or use --fundmax to sweep all selected UTXOs into a single channel.
  • Full channel configuration: The command supports the same options as lncli openchannel — channel type (tweakless, anchors, taproot), private channels, push amounts, fee rates, zero-conf, and more.

Examples:

loop openchannel --node_key <peer_pubkey> --local_amt 1000000
loop openchannel --node_key <peer_pubkey> --utxo txid:0 --fundmax
