I am not sure how this works. Lets say we have path of 4 for a transaction.

A - B - C - D

Lets say 100usd transaction amount.

For the sake of arguement, lets consider every node has 100usd credit one way (reverse path)

So if A want to send 100usd to D.

A gets 100usd credit from B, B gets from C and C gets from D.

Until D spends money, system is locking 300usd credit for 100 usd transaction?
