The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit only removes test cases that covered old-style ('legacy') Lightning channels with zero reserve. It does not change the actual production code that runs in users' nodes. The remaining tests now focus on modern anchor-style channels. There is no direct security fix or vulnerability introduced by this change.

Recommended action

No immediate action required. If the project still supports legacy static_remote_key channels in production, maintainers should confirm whether equivalent coverage exists elsewhere or whether the legacy channel type itself is being deprecated. End users are not affected by this test-only change.

Security signals we found

01

Removal of legacy-channel test coverage only

02

No changes to src/ln/channel.rs, channelmanager.rs, or transaction-fee production logic

03

Commit title explicitly states intent: 'Remove all tests covering 0-reserve legacy channels'

04

Remaining tests still exercise 0-reserve behavior on anchor channel types
