LIGHTNING-NEWADDR(7) ==================== :doctype: manpage NAME ---- lightning-newaddr - Command for generating a new address to be used by c-lightning. SYNOPSIS -------- *newaddr* [ 'addresstype' ] DESCRIPTION ----------- The *newaddr* RPC command generates a new address which can subsequently be used to fund channels managed by the c-lightning node. The funding transaction needs to be confirmed before funds can be used. 'addresstype' specifies the type of address wanted; i.e. 'p2sh-segwit' (e.g. 2MxaozoqWwiUcuD9KKgUSrLFDafLqimT9Ta on bitcoin testnet or 3MZxzq3jBSKNQ2e7dzneo9hy4FvNzmMmt3 on bitcoin mainnet) or 'bech32 ' (e.g. tb1qu9j4lg5f9rgjyfhvfd905vw46eg39czmktxqgg on bitcoin testnet or bc1qwqdg6squsna38e46795at95yu9atm8azzmyvckulcc7kytlcckxswvvzej on bitcoin mainnet). The special value 'all' generates both address types for the same underlying key. If not specified the address generated is bech32. RETURN VALUE ------------ On success, a 'bech32' address and/or a 'p2sh-segwit' address will be returned. ERRORS ------ If an unrecognized address type is requested an error message will be returned.
