lightning-newaddr -- Command for generating a new address to be used by Core Lightning
SYNOPSIS
newaddr [addresstype]
DESCRIPTION
The newaddr RPC command generates a new address which can subsequently be used to fund channels managed by the Core Lightning node.
The funding transaction needs to be confirmed before funds can be used.
addresstype specifies the type of address wanted; currently bech32
(e.g. tb1qu9j4lg5f9rgjyfhvfd905vw46eg39czmktxqgg
on bitcoin testnet
or bc1qwqdg6squsna38e46795at95yu9atm8azzmyvckulcc7kytlcckxswvvzej
on
bitcoin mainnet), or p2tr taproot addresses. The special value all
generates all known address types for the same underlying key.
If no addresstype is specified the address generated is a bech32 address.
To send an on-chain payment from the Core Lightning node wallet, use withdraw
.
