2. There is a possibility that you don't have access to your node (might have gotten destroyed in a nuclear attack): In this scenario, you will need to start a new node to recover funds. You will need your 24-word cipher seed and the SCB. You can set up a new node in neutrino mode to save time, neutrino is a lightweight client that allows you to run an LN node without Bitcoin core. You can create a new neutrino node by following these instructions by Alex Bosworth: https://github.com/alexbosworth/ln-service These instructions are for creating a node on AWS EC2, however, you can create one on your laptop/desktop or on a Raspberry Pi. After you start a new node on neutrino, you can follow the same recovery instructions: https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/blob/master/docs/recovery.md#recovering-using-scbs (use lncli create -multi_file=channel.backup) Note: Replace channel.backup with the name of your backup file.
