if you upgraded, then that means you are now a node runner and have to manage liquidity yourself. welcome to the next level. you'll need to open at least one channel. i'd open a fat channel to someone like nostr:npub1hcwcj72tlyk7thtyc8nq763vwrq5p2avnyeyrrlwxrzuvdl7j3usj4h9rq. https://amboss.space/node/035e4ff418fc8b5554c5d9eea66396c227bd429a3251c8cbc711002ba215bfc226

There’s also a website that shows which nodes are the most connected, have the best uptime track record etc. I forget the website name but will post in thread when I find my bookmark
Huh, Node Runner, I like the sound of that lol
self-sovereignty begins with running your own node. pretty soon you'll be self-hosting your own node. 🫡
nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm lets you buy inbound liquidity from multiple LSPs, so you can choose from Olympus ( nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5), nostr:npub1l0ans4w4psmcv6hsqjz2v3mxszhputlsfn4emkynv3jlwrfez59s35q0ug, ACINQ, etc. You should definitely start with at least 500K sats so you have room to grow. You can add more channels as you need them, and you have the option to close them as they fill up if you want to move back on-chain.
Node runner… the coyote’s after you
Node runner … if he catches you you’re through.
Ignore my adhd brain 🤣
Out of sats 🙃🙃🙃
NGL, opening one channel for outbound liquidity will help, but I think I have to wait until payday and don’t overthink it.
At the end of the day, nothing will happen when I don’t open another one, but my brain telling me to go get some sats from money that left in bank account 😂😂😂

Idk, I saw nostr:npub1vp8fdcyejd4pqjyrjk9sgz68vuhq7pyvnzk8j0ehlljvwgp8n6eqsrnpsw post about good time to open channel as a single post, didn’t noticed that there is a whole thread of discussion.
I apologize for venting
nostr:npub17zk2weur62r0t4endvfg3z84muljn8s8r9e74up72gqfrh8rxphqlqm5zy Got zap from you, thanks.
Seems like you managed to work it out? 🧠🧠🧠
Yeah, I figured out the setup step I missed haha
