If it's still this low on Monday...maybe I'll open some channels again... who should I connect with? What's the smart play? Capacity? If you have experience on this, I'm listening...

So many things to consider. Based on what you need i guess. Routing or private? Are you going to use it for stacking before moving into a massive utxo or use something like liquid in between?

Well last time I was trying for routing (fees). Wanted to put a little capacity to honest work. I imagined I might get local small businesses to connect but management of the channels became too time consuming and I kept having to rebalance, eating all my "profits." Also realized I needed more capacity than I was comfortable putting on the umbrel (no keys that I could find).

Maybe this time I'd look into private? Open to thoughts.

If i were to do it again, i would buy something more competent than my rbp4. I'm probably not the best person to ask though as my attempts were all expensive failures 😅

A single Phoenix wallet channel is all I need and its been good to me ever since.
