This would give the sender \na receipt after only one of the HTLCs was claimed. Would require changes to \nthe scripts of course.\nWith Schnorr/EC operations this could probably be made more elegant, as \nmentioned.\n\n- Johan\nOn Wed, Feb 7, 2018 at 18:21, Rusty Russell \u003crusty at rustcorp.com.au\u003e wrote:\nOlaoluwa Osuntokun \u003claolu32 at gmail.com\u003e writes:\n \u003e Hi Y'all,\n \u003e\n \u003e A common question I've seen concerning Lightning is: \"I have five $2\n \u003e channels, is it possible for me to *atomically* send $6 to fulfill a\n \u003e payment?\".
