Initial account balance cannot be 0 sat ?

[jimmydjabali]

Hello,

I'd like to create empty accounts with litd but seems the minimum to create an account is 1 sat.
Trying with CLI, I get this error:
initial balance cannot be smaller than 1

lightning-terminal/cmd/litcli/accounts.go

Lines 117 to 119 in c03b040

	if initialBalance <= 0 {
	return fmt.Errorf("initial balance cannot be smaller than 1")
	}

Trying with RPC, I get this error:
a new account cannot have balance of 0
https://github.com/lightninglabs/lightning-terminal/blob/master/accounts/store.go#L110-L112

Is this is a technical limitation why it's not possible to create an account with an initial balance of 0 sat, or is there a workaround to make it possible?

Thanks a lot!

Previously, this wasn't possible. But, thanks to your question, we just merged a pull request to make this possible in the next release of litd: #718 Let me know if you any questions!
