Close Lightning channel before is was signed and lost btc

[lopessleo]

I recently tried to open a lightning channel in my Electrum wallet, I put the maximum available value (all my btc) and by mistake I put a very low completion fee. To try to change the fee value and thus speed up the verification, I closed the channel (forced closure), before it was signed and opened.

Now all my values have disappeared, the channel is as “REQUESTED_FCLOSE”, there is no channel ID, but the app shows the balance of the BTC that I selected.

I would like to know what I can do to recover my BTCs
It has been more than 24 hours and no update

You probably need to bump the fee on the opening transaction, and then once it has opened, wait for the remote node to force close the then-open channel (since you already requested that).

What's the transaction ID for that channel-open transaction?

Wtf??. You could just wait or doublespend/cancel opening tx. Good luck sweeping commitment in post-halving/runes garbage clogged mempool..

At least with Electrum, the commitment transaction doesn't need to be swept by the party that didn't force-close, as that output goes directly back to a normal wallet address. So if you request the remote node to force-close your channel, you will get your channel balance back directly, so sweep needed.
