Pour ouvrir un canal de paiement, les deux parties impliquées doivent créer un portefeuille à signatures multiples et y ajouter des fonds. Les fonds stockés sur des portefeuilles à plusieurs signatures ne sont accessibles que si les clés privées des deux parties sont fournies (deux ou plus, selon le cas). Cela signifie qu'une partie ne peut pas ouvrir le portefeuille sans le consentement de l'autre.
