Now that my nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll node is up and stable it's time to start deciding who to open LN channels with.

I am considering starting out leaning heavily to the #V4V (and podcasting 2.0) side of things by opening channels to the following entities:

- nostr:npub1yfg0d955c2jrj2080ew7pa4xrtj7x7s7umt28wh0zurwmxgpyj9shwv6vg

- Podcast Index

- nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm

Who else do you think should be in this list?

nostr:npub137c5pd8gmhhe0njtsgwjgunc5xjr2vmzvglkgqs5sjeh972gqqxqjak37w is a lightning fanatic also!

Yes! πŸ‘ŠπŸ«‚βš‘οΈ nostr:npub137c5pd8gmhhe0njtsgwjgunc5xjr2vmzvglkgqs5sjeh972gqqxqjak37w

Not sure if I have my ch of the V4V flow through my node, since it is generally a routing node and has a ton of random transactions πŸΆπŸΎπŸ«‚

Some of which are V4V you overly modest canine. πŸ‘ŠπŸ«‚βš‘οΈ

A channel to Alby will route a lot of payments and earn you fees. I have had a channel to podcast index for a long time and basically never route traffic to them.

You could open channels to the nodes of individual content creators to give them inbound liquidity, especially if they don't have many channels to their node.

Great idea

I would be interested in hearing about your experience setting up lightning channels. I've been messing with setting up and managing channels for two weeks and have constant issues with failing payments. Finding routes seems almost impossible.

In the words of nostr:npub1guh5grefa7vkay4ps6udxg8lrqxg2kgr3qh9n4gduxut64nfxq0q9y6hjy and nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx, "BEWARE"

Not possible to migrate from LND to CLN? Did you go with CLN

from looking at their website, it seems the servers dont run wireless, only ethernet. tru dat?

That is true. I wouldn't want my node to be accessible via WiFi though.
