## chantools rescuefunding
Rescue funds locked in a funding multisig output that never resulted in a proper channel; this is the command the initiator of the channel needs to run
### Synopsis
This is part 1 of a two phase process to rescue a channel
funding output that was created on chain by accident but never resulted in a
proper channel and no commitment transactions exist to spend the funds locked in
the 2-of-2 multisig.
**You need the cooperation of the channel partner (remote node) for this to
work**! They need to run the second command of this process: signrescuefunding
If successful, this will create a PSBT that then has to be sent to the channel
partner (remote node operator).
```
chantools rescuefunding [flags]
```
### Examples
```
chantools rescuefunding --rootkey xprvxxxxxxxxxx \
--channeldb ~/.lnd/data/graph/mainnet/channel.db \
--channelpoint xxxxxxx:xx \
--sweepaddr bc1qxxxxxxxxx \
--feerate 10
```
### Options
```
--bip39 read a classic BIP39 seed and passphrase from the terminal instead of asking for lnd seed format or providing the --rootkey flag
--channeldb string lnd channel.db file to rescue a channel from; must contain the pending channel specified with --channelpoint
--channelpoint string funding transaction outpoint of the channel to rescue (<txid>:<txindex>) as it is recorded in the DB
--confirmedchannelpoint string channel outpoint that got confirmed on chain (<txid>:<txindex>); normally this is the same as the --channelpoint so it will be set to that value ifthis is left empty
--feerate uint16 fee rate to use for the sweep transaction in sat/vByte (default 2)
-h, --help help for rescuefunding
--rootkey string BIP32 HD root key of the wallet to use for deriving keys; leave empty to prompt for lnd 24 word aezeed
--sweepaddr string address to sweep the funds to
```
### Options inherited from parent commands
```
-r, --regtest Indicates if regtest parameters should be used
-t, --testnet Indicates if testnet parameters should be used
```
