How's your Wednesday night going? I'm building a Lightning node Ring of Fire with Nostriches that are fairly new to the #Lightning network, opening up their first sets of channels. This is how we facilitate the use of Lightning as a global payments network. We educate, we complain how channel management and liquidity management is a pain in the ass, then we open up channels with them anyways, so that they can feel our pain and participate. ๐Ÿค™

Dope! Running nodes helps the network!

I can't move after food ๐Ÿซ„๐Ÿคฃ

Ooh, this interests me. I havenโ€™t quite learned how to open my own channels using my node. Can I participate in the lesson?

There is a spot open I can send you link via dm

Thanks

sent, let us know when you accept and we can open up channels

On second thought Iโ€™m going to pass for the moment. This looks like you guys are looking for someone a little more advanced than I am.

Sure. Maybe I'll schedule a Nest in the next day or two and we'll hit up a bunch of questions.

Id open some channels. Gotta move some more on chain to my LN node.

Thursday morning here and just started fiat mining โ›๏ธ Iโ€™m also looking to open a couple more channels to Nostriches from my node soon when I add some more funds.

Would love to connect. Lemme know how I can support.

I did my first try of Radio channel, shilling songs on nostrnests.com and having so much fun with some #nostriches that were there baring the wrong shifts and miscellaneous of type of Music.

Will do better next time, was just a try ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿซ‚โ˜ฏ๏ธ

#IntuitiveSoundRadio stay tuned!

I'm doing the dishes.

You are having much more fun.

Running a lightning routing node that actual routes some traffic is a full time business

It is! ๐Ÿ˜‚ I gave up on that dream and now just let Lightning Terminal autopilot handle my fees.

Derek thatโ€™s great. I had a channel open once but had no traffic. I found it hard to find someone open worn since I was a newby. How big are the channels?

You need several channels to begin routing. You can join liquidity swaps over on lightningnetwork.plus and also join the Nodestrich telegram group and find channel partners.

Thanks could you give me info to Telegram group? Iโ€™m not finding it when I search.

Truth ๐Ÿค™

We have one space open in our ring of fire that needs to be filled. Any takers?

I'm in, just give me an hour.

I'm building up my second node and have no channels on it yet but if it's okay with you, I'm down. It'll take me a couple days to open enough channels to be able to route anything, but the goal is to make it a very solid lightning node.

Oops I tagged Intuitive Guy but our final ring member is #[6]๐Ÿ˜ญ

Bullish!

Currently trying to figure out why I canโ€™t pay invoices generated by my Lightning node due to, according to the failed payment message, missing RouteHints in the invoice. Any ideas what my next step might be? Thanks. Right now Iโ€™m not super convinced Iโ€™d be safe funding channels on Umbrel node without significant risk to the Sats that I put up. I really want to get versed in this technology and get it dialed so I can help others set up their own lighting nodes. Hopefully hear back from question I posed on Umbrel Community. โœŒ๐Ÿฝ

Ow I just got my LN node running and need to open up my first channels..
