lightning-multiwithdraw -- Command for withdrawing to multiple addresses

SYNOPSIS

multiwithdraw outputs [feerate] [minconf] [utxos]

DESCRIPTION

The multiwithdraw RPC command sends funds from Core Lightning's internal wallet to the addresses specified in outputs.

  • outputs (array of outputdescs): An array containing objects of the form {address: amount}. The amount may be the string all, indicating that all onchain funds be sent to the specified address. Otherwise, it is in satoshi precision; it can be a whole number, a whole number ending in sat, a whole number ending in 000msat, or a number with 1 to 8 decimal places ending in btc.:
    • (outputdesc, optional)
  • feerate (feerate, optional): Feerate used for the withdrawals. See NOTES in lightning-feerates(7) for possible values. The default is normal.
  • minconf (u32, optional): Minimum number of confirmations that used outputs should have. The default is 1.
  • utxos (array of outpoints, optional):
    • (outpoint, optional): Utxos to be used to be withdrawn from, as an array of txid:vout. These must be drawn from the node's available UTXO set.

RETURN VALUE

On success, an object is returned, containing:

  • tx (hex): The raw transaction which was sent.
  • txid (txid): The txid of the tx.

ERRORS

On failure, an error is reported and the withdrawal transaction is not created.

  • -1: Catchall nonspecific error.
  • 301: There are not enough funds in the internal wallet (including fees) to create the transaction.
  • 302: The dust limit is not met.
