In order to set up a payment channel between a sender and a receiver, the two parties must
first agree on three [1] parameters for the channel:
(1) sender public key
(2) receiver public key
(3) channel expiration date
These parameters
are contained in 'ChannelParameters', from which the Bitcoin address used to fund
the payment channel can be derived using
'getFundingAddress'. The transaction which pays to this address is the channel funding
transaction, and information about it is contained in a 'FundingTxInfo'.
So, the channel funding transaction will contain an output which pays to the address returned by
'getFundingAddress', and once this transaction is created and in
the blockchain, a 'SenderPaymentChannel' and
'ReceiverPaymentChannel' instance can be created, after first creating the 'FundingTxInfo' instance.
'FundingTxInfo' contains three pieces of information about the funding transaction:
(1) hash/transaction ID
(2) index/vout of the funding output (paying to 'getFundingAddress' address),
(3) value of the funding output (paying to 'getFundingAddress' address)
With 'ChannelParameters' and 'FundingTxInfo',
the sender can create a new 'SenderPaymentChannel', plus
the first channel payment, using 'channelWithInitialPaymentOf'. 'channelWithInitialPaymentOf'
takes two additional arguments:
(1) a signing function which, given a hash, produces a signature that verifies against
'cpSenderPubKey' in 'ChannelParameters'
(2) the value of the first channel payment
The sender will want to use @flip 'Network.Haskoin.Crypto.signMsg' senderPrivKey@ as the signing
function, where @senderPrivKey@ is the private key from which 'cpSenderPubKey' is derived.
'channelWithInitialPaymentOf' will return the first channel 'Payment' as well as
the new 'SenderPaymentChannel' state. The new state is stored, and the 'Payment'
transferred to the receiver.
The receiver will now create its own channel state object, 'ReceiverPaymentChannel', using
'channelFromInitialPayment'.
'channelFromInitialPayment' takes the same 'ChannelParameters' and 'FundingTxInfo'
as was provided by the sender, and, in addition, the first channel 'Payment', received from the sender.
Now the payment channel is open and ready for transmitting value. A new 'Payment' is created by
the sender with 'sendPayment', which yields a new payment, that increases the total value transmitted
to the receiver by the specified amount, and an updated 'Data.Bitcoin.PaymentChannel.Types.SenderPaymentChannel' state.
The receiver will verify and register this 'Payment' on its side using 'recvPayment', which, on success,
returns the value received with this payment plus the updated
'ReceiverPaymentChannel' state object.
Payments can flow from the sender to receiver until either the channel is exhausted, or getting
close to expiration (see important note below). In either case the receiver will use 'getSettlementBitcoinTx' to create the settlement
Bitcoin transaction, and publish this transaction to the Bitcoin network. The settlement Bitcoin
transaction pays the total value transmitted over the channel to the receiver and the rest back
to the sender.
A settlement transaction can be produced by the value receiver using 'getSettlementBitcoinTx'.
The receiver will want to use @flip 'Network.Haskoin.Crypto.signMsg' receiverPrivKey@ as the
signing function passed to 'getSettlementBitcoinTx',
where @receiverPrivKey@ is the private key from which 'cpReceiverPubKey' is derived.
[1] In addition to this, two configuration options must also be agreed upon: a "dust limit",
and a "settlement period" (measured in hours), which is subtracted from the channel expiration
date in order to arrive at the effective (earlier) expiration date. This is necessary to give the
server/receiver time to publish the settlement transaction before the refund transaction becomes
valid. The dust limit is the minimum amount that the server is willing to accept
as the client change value in the
payment transaction. It's only relevant if the channel is
emptied of value completely, but it is necessary because the server doesn't want to accept
payments based on transactions it cannot publish via the Bitcoin P2P network, because they
contain an output of minuscule value. Sensible values are contained in 'defaultConfig', but
client/sender and server/receiver need to agree on these parameter as well, although they are
only relevant 1) (in the case of the dust limit) if the channel is compleltely exchausted and
2) (in case of the "settlemend period") if the client tries to make payments close to expiration
(and, in case the client does, it will just receive an error in response, saying the channel
is now closed).
__/IMPORTANT:/__ /Channel setup is risk free because the sender can derive a refund Bitcoin transaction/
/using 'getRefundBitcoinTx', which returns the bitcoins used to fund the channel back to the sender./
/This refund transaction, however, is not valid until the expiration date specified in 'ChannelParameters',/
/but it is paramount that the value receiver get a settlement transaction included in a block/
/before the refund transaction becomes valid. Due to the fact that Bitcoin network time is allowed/
/to drift up to two hours from actual time, and the fact that finding new Bitcoin blocks does not occur/
/according to any schedule, it would be wise for the receiver to publish a settlement transaction at least/
/4 hours before the specified channel expiration time, and possibly earlier, if the receiver wants to/
/be cautious./
