After the perfect storm of force closures yesterday, in addition to other issues with my database, I have decided to liquidate my lightning node, MindlinerTre, and start a new node 🍀 . This time, all channels will be opened with maximum support for adoption, a focus on small businesses who need inbound liquidity, and a preference for pleb nodes; details will follow.

It sucks what happened to your node but it's good to see you take it as an opportunity to start something new.

Good luck with the new node!

Sorry to see this happen to you. Please let me know your new node so I can reopen a channel

May I suggest for you to look into Eclair https://yakihonne.com/article/_@thefishcake.com/nyHCaP2Z_ilI2dzpHELA_

I can help with the setup if you need, full HA and reliability

When one node closes, another sails in. Best of luck with MindlinerTre 2.0—may your channels be smooth and your liquidity deep... like the sea. 🌊⚓ https://yacht-trading.blogspot.com/2025/05/how-much-is-superyacht-for-sale.html

As someone who has gone through losing all channels to SCB due to hardware failure I feel the pain! But taking it as a chance to rebuild from scratch is a good mentality- my node is better than it ever was before my big disaster. You will come back stronger 🩷

Will be glad to reconnect at Nodelou🐈 once you rebuild. GL. ⚡️⚡️⚡️

Fees are dirt cheap too.

Now is a good time.

Yes, it's perhaps the last opportunity to get away with a complete node liquidation and rebuild. I closed 200 channels (70 FCs) for a total of 75k sats. Wild. Let's hope blockchain usage remains stable for the rebuild.

Good price! keep building!

I encountered an LND bug last week that costs me 2 heavy transactions at 1000sats/vb with a total 500K sats down the drain.

technically all the sats i made from my node over the past two years are gone lol

We build and test because we believe its going to be helpful in the future.
