Does anyone have a source or good recommendation on how much to keep on layer 2 LND?

Back in the day #[0]​ mentioned he kept 10% of his total bag on layer 2 ⚡️

I only keep like $500 on WoS for zaps and small purchases. Wouldn't be the end of the world if I lost it. 10% could be a helluva lot or a little depending on how much bitcoin you have 😅

Definitely agree if someone is using a custodial ⚡️wallet. I prefer self-custody, helps me sleep better at night 🙂

No more than you would carry as cash in your wallet

Ok…curious, what’s the thinking behind that?

The same reason you don't walk around with all your wealth as cash in your wallet.

Lightning Network is a payment network, not a method of wealth storage. It is still an experiment and nowhere near as secure as BTC. Self-Custody your wealth in BTC on-chain.
