Can someone who has used alby hub for a self hosted lightning wallet please explain from a technical perspective these questions?

What is the absolute bare minimum bitcoin amount required to get started with Alby hub?

What happens to my bitcoin once I have sent the required bitcoin to alby hub to open my lightning wallet channel?

Do I earn satoshis like I would having a regular lightning node with Electrum?

Is it possible to take bitcoin off the lightning network once in alby hub and transfer it into a cold storage wallet for a long term hodl?

Does using Alby Hub expose my IP address, or have any other privacy leaking information that I should take measures to protect myself from?

Are you talking about hub self hosted, or hub the cloud?

When your self hosting, it simply integrates with the channels that you’ve already opened with your lightning implementation (LND, LDK, etc. ) You don’t have to open any additional channels to run the hub software and use its features
