What you need is to avoid the need to keep opening channels because that’s a waste of your sats.

I would do it this way. Let’s say you want to have 100k inbound liquidity.

Send 200k sats yo Phoenix as your initial transaction. That will open a much a bigger channel with 197k sats. Then from Phoenix send 97k sats back to a different wallet.

You’ll have an open channel in Phoenix with 100k sats and around 100k sats of inbound liquidity.

Does this make sense?

As you fill your inbound liquidity over time, you’ll need to send sats out of Phoenix to leave room for more incoming transactions.

Lightning is tricky this way. We don’t see these things wil WoS or Alby because they manage these issues.

But Phoenix is much closer to how an actual Lightning node works. It forces you to manage your own liquidity.
