<div>There are several delays built in to Lightning.<br />
<br />
= Time Lock Delta / CLTV delta =<br />
* Time Lock Delta is the same as CLTV delta<br />
* It is a setting in the channel<br />
* each hop has a time delta, when you include that hop that delta gets added to the final absolute HTLC that the sender sends out<br />
** if each hop has a 1 block delta, and there are 3 hops, then if we’re at height 0, the cltv expiry the sender uses for that first htlc is 3<br />
<br />
= Force-close delay / csv_delay =<br />
* csv_delay is the same as [[Closing channels|force close]] delay<br />
* Set when opening a channel (lnd: remote_csv_delay)<br />
* How many blocks to wait to get funds back in a [[Closing channels|unfriendly close]]</div>91.140.90.53
