All in a days work for the lightning liquidity farmers

The real yield is the channels we made along the way
Also, the real yield is the friends we made along the way.
Opened a 1,000,000 sats channel to you friend #[12] 🤙🏽

I'm routing with so many Nostriches now. If anyone wants to open a channel, hit me up. ⚡️🤙
So here’s a #pleb question on lightning. For round numbers - say you had 1 million sats in your lightning wallet, can you open 2 x 1 million sat channels. Or if you have 2 channels, they would have to be 500,000 sat channels each?
You could only have 1-million in outbound liquidity, but how you divide that across multiple channels could vary.
You could open a 1 million sats channel, loop out the entire balance and leave that channel open, then open another 1 million sats channel (second channel would actually be slightly less than 1 million because of channel opening fees and channel reserves) and now you’d have 1 million inbound and 1 million-ish outbound capacity
I have zero channels and I'm looking for my first hookup. I'd be much obliged to anyone willing to open with me.
I have no idea how this would work or if it’s even remotely possible but could « Nodestrich » be its own micro-app dedicated to opening lightning channels with other plebs on Nostr?
Cool idea, no clue how to do that 😁
#[11] what’s your node address? We’ll get you started.
Yes it’s definitely possible and I expect won’t take long til we see something like this.
In the meantime, can we start #nodechain and get more Nodestriches to open channels?
Amazing!! Might be even be worth adding to the Bounty list if we want to put some sats into this! I know I would https://bountsr.org
Maybe a new NIP around liquidity sales/swaps/group opens
