Never understood why all of the big miners that hold all this BTC, don't put a small percentage on a lightning node and earn some routing fees
Discussion
Making a profit with routing fees might be more difficult than with mining.
Miners do nothing with their corn until it is time to settle their bills. Otherwise far much more ₿tc would be out in the ecosystems creating a circular economy.
The Ocean and Braiins pools give you option of lightning payouts. I'd assume that they run their own lightning nodes.
