this is amazing. I run a small node myself, but I earn just like 50 sats/month. How much liquidity approx. do you invest in your node ?

That’s awesome! The total capacity of my node is about 50 million sats in 25 channels or so.

I mostly keep zero base fees and manage my max HTLCs daily to optimize moving liquidity outbound and inbound. I never have to rebalance my channels and the number of payments I route has increased dramatically since I started doing this.

This is the way 🧡

max HTLC, ..., let me check. Thanks a lot!

No pb! And yes, set your max HTLC to just under your outbound capacity an all channels. So for example if you have a 545,345 sats in outbound, set it to 545,000 etc.

The DarthCoin Substack link I set has a really great in depth breakdown ⚡️💜

Do you recommend anywhere to start with a lightning node?

Do you already have one? If not MyNode, start9, Umbrel or RaspiBlitz are a great way to start ⚡️
