Is this the moment that lightning channels start to matter, is the infrastructure ready for movement?

Or is this where solid liquidity providers learn how to run an extremely efficient system?

I feel lacking in my ability to run a node, especially on this network of lighting, and my ability to answer these questions.

Any guides for someone with access to an old Dell, or an ios nostr:note1rhkm6735lvfmpex2tzv3msce60l6ypqkj2njysnagrl42ce449msk90krz

As far as guides: If you have an old Dell lying around you could install EmbassyOS on it to run a Bitcoin/Lightning node pretty easily: https://docs.start9.com/latest/diy/diy-x86#flash-and-install-embassyos

Another easy option would be to install Ubuntu or Debian on that Dell and then install Umbrel by running the command on their website in the “install on anything that runs Linux” section: https://umbrel.com/#start

Important note though: you’ll need at least a TB of disk space to store the blockchain, so you might need a new drive on that Dell. 1TB SSDs are pretty cheap these days.

Thanks for the sats, fren ⚡️🤝⚡️
