I think keeping 50-100k sats in my Lightning wallet is the right range for me—it’s what I can afford and feels like a fair amount for exchanging value with people on #Nostr.
How about you?

I usually keep 5-10k. Once it goes over that I dump into cold storage
I think that. That’s a good range too. I keep it over 50k sometimes because of purposes of shopping or supporting business which usually require 20k sat invoices or more.
I try to keep no more than 10K sats.
What’s your reasoning as to why
Worried I could get rugged. Over 10K would bother me if I lost it.
How so?
Okay let me come from different perspective. Sats on your own lighting node.
I definitely get from custodians or from mints.
That's that thing. I don't have my own node. Haha.
Ahh yea that makes sense with the whole don’t want to get rugged thing.
Hbu then nostr:npub1uzt238htjzpq39dxmltlx60vxym9fetk9czz6kddq6fhvkf4z3usy9qtrh why not more if you run a node? Just curious.
There is no right or wrong answer.
Whatever works for you.
I carry quite a bit more on my node/lightning ... but, I've been node operating and immersed in the infratsructure for a while
Great thing to hear
Between 3 and 5 hundred k
