Wouldn’t they be ideal for a drain function, especially on their “demo” server?

Since the funds never rest in any lnbits wallet but are drained out immediately, wouldn’t this be beneficial to most merchants not running their own node with a proxy, or who don’t have channels or the liquidity to spin them up?

You are right in the use case, but it is a demo server because it shouldn't be relied on!

Oh, I definitely get that. Hence only using it for small use cases that are drained automatically.

But yes, I’m building out 2 nodes for restaurants this week who will then be able to use their local lnbits instances, but they don’t have the liquidity or connectivity to make it viable to do the latter yet.

Once they see it working on their 1st event, or split for tips, then I’m sure they’d be more inclined to self-host.
