As + new protocol feature hasn't yet been finalized, users must enable taproot + channels with a new flag: `--protocol.simple-taproot-channels`. Once enabled, + user MUST use the explicit channel type to request the taproot channel type + (pending support by the remote peer). For `lncli openchannel`, + `--channel_type=taproot` should be used. ## DB
