Going to try and spin up a lightning node again. Been about a year since I’ve played around with L2. After the recent CoinOS mishap, and on chain fees are still low, figured now is as good a time as ever.

Quick question for you node runners out there. I want to run a CLN node to generate a bolt12 offer for my hobby miners. Does CLN play well with NWC? Or should I run and LND alongside my CLN and just implement Albyhub to handle NWC? Id like to try and figure out NWC only relying on my node…. Decisions, decisions.

Good luck brother. I have totally given up on opening a lighting channel. It’s about $1,000 worth of sats to even mess around with it and it can be closed at any time. Alby Hub is even a nightmare plus KYC is involved for that. I’ll stick to Bitcoin base layer until L2 has a better solution for opening a channel.

$1k is a lot for me and my family, half of me knows I should keep it in cold storage and chill. The other half of me looks at it as .01 BTC and it’s the bar to entry. I’ve spent the last year just focusing on the basics of L1 and running a node. This year may be the year for lightning.

Hey man I got my node up and running, wasn’t too bad! If you want to open up a channel with me I’ve set the minimum real low to 10k sats to try and help out the network. Let me know if you have any questions
