## chantools

Chantools helps recover funds from lightning channels

### Synopsis

This tool provides helper functions that can be used rescue
funds locked in lnd channels in case lnd itself cannot run properly anymore.
Complete documentation is available at https://github.com/guggero/chantools/.

### Options

```
  -h, --help      help for chantools
  -r, --regtest   Indicates if regtest parameters should be used
  -t, --testnet   Indicates if testnet parameters should be used
```
