Since v0.8.0, Fiber uses pubkey (hex-encoded secp256k1) for peer identification. Use connect_peer with the pubkey — the node will resolve the address automatically via gossip.

Network Topology

The typical testnet topology for multi-hop payments:

┌───────┐        ┌───────┐        ┌───────┐        ┌───────┐
│ nodeA │ ─────▶ │ node1 │ ─────▶ │ node2 │ ─────▶ │ nodeB │
│:8227  │        │public │        │public │        │:8237  │
└───────┘        └───────┘        └───────┘        └───────┘
  sender        relay node 1     relay node 2      receiver

Local nodes (nodeA, nodeB) do not need to expose a public address — they connect through the public relay nodes.

Channel Capacity

When opening a channel, each side must reserve 99 CKB (98 CKB for commitment lock + 1 CKB for shutdown transaction fee). This reserved amount is not available for off-chain payments.

Example: If you fund 499 CKB and the public node contributes 250 CKB:

  • Your available balance: 499 - 99 = 400 CKB
  • Public node available: 250 - 99 = 151 CKB
