Hey everyone, I tried to open a channel using Electrum Trampoline with LND and I ran into a problem because of the parameter 1500000, which is the "push_amt." The docs say:
This push-amount is taken from your local amount, meaning your local amount needs to be higher than the push amount. Plus, when you set a push amount, you’re giving that amount to the other party when opening the channel.
I found this question: https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/91847/lost-funds-on-my-lightning-node?noredirect=1&lq=1
So basically, I accidentally sent 1500000 sats to the other side without getting anything back.
The way to fix this might be to contact the other party, but I can't find any details for the owner of the Electrum Trampoline. The only thing I’ve got is the IP address:
That node can be found here: https://1ml.com/node/03ecef675be448b615e6176424070673ef8284e0fd19d8be062a6cb5b130a0a0d1
And here’s the transaction info (the channel is still open): https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/transaction/d337836cd20babab905fc6a02cede41cbdc3e81cdd4e514b333f0adb574c59cf
Does anyone have any way to contact the owner of the Electrum Trampoline?
Thanks a bunch!
Edit: The owner helped me get my funds back!

I was going to suggest you create an issue on GitHub but I see that you have already done that. https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues/8915
They also have a developer who is present in the forum ghost43, but they are not very active.
When you pushed the 1.5 million sats to their side of the channel it gave you inbound capacity, so it should be trivial for them to send the sats back to your side if they choose to help you.
Thanks for your response!
Today the owner help me returning the funds so im happy with that!
