RETURN VALUE
On success, an object containing chainmoves is returned. It is an array of objects, where each object contains:
- created_index (u64): 1-based index indicating order this move was created in.
- account_id (string): This is either the channel_id corresponding to the channel involved, or a string such as
wallet
for the internal wallet, orexternal
for some other external source. - credit_msat (msat): Amount credited (one of this or debit_msat is zero)
