 # Release Notes
 
+## Remote signing
+
+The [remote signing](../remote-signing.md) setup was simplified in that the
+signing node now [does not need to be hooked up to its own chain
+backend](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/pull/6006). A new mock chain
+backend can be specified with `--bitcoin.node=nochainbackend`. That way a wallet
+will be created and all signing RPCs work but the node will not look at any
+chain data. It can therefore be fully offline except for a single incoming gRPC
+connection from the watch-only node.
+

-NOTE: Offline in this context means that `lnd` itself does not need to be
-reachable from the internet and itself doesn't connect out. If the `bitcoind`
-or other chain backend is indeed running within this same firewall/offline zone
-then that component will need at least _outbound_ internet access. But it is
-also possible to use a chain backend that is running outside this zone.
-
-## Restrictions / limitations
-
-The current implementation of the remote signing mode comes with a few
-restrictions and limitations:
-
-- Both `lnd` instances need a connection to a chain backend:
-    - The type of chain backend (`bitcoind`, `btcd` or `neutrino`) **must**
-      match.
-    - Both instances can point to the same chain backend node, though limits
-      apply with the number of `lnd` instances that can use the same `bitcoind`
-      node over ZMQ.
-      See ["running multiple lnd nodes" in the safety guide](safety.md#running-multiple-lnd-nodes)
-      .
-    - Using a pruned chain backend is not recommended as that increases the
-      chance of the two wallets falling out of sync with each other.
-- The wallet of the "signer" instance **must not be used** for anything.
-  Especially generating new addresses manually on the "signer" will lead to the
-  two wallets falling out of sync!

+## Migrating an existing setup to remote signing
+
+It is possible to migrate a node that is currently a standalone, normal node
+with all private keys in its wallet to a setup that uses remote signing (with
+a watch-only and a remote signer node).
+
+To migrate an existing node, follow these steps:
+1. Create a new "signer" node using the same seed as the existing node,
+   following the steps [mentioned above](#the-signer-node).
+2. In the configuration of the existing node, add the configuration entries as
+   [shown above](#the-watch-only-node). But instead of creating a new wallet
+   (since one already exists), instruct `lnd` to migrate the existing wallet to
+   a watch-only one (by purging all private key material from it) by adding the
+  `remotesigner.migrate-wallet-to-watch-only=true` configuration entry.
