Out of curiosity. If I sent you say 100K sats, and you don’t have the liquidity. What happens?

Isn’t the liquidity provided by Olympus?

I sent you some sats took a good minute.

Yeah it appears it’s not as instant as some wallets but I feel like that will change. Clearly still in beta

What’s yours? I’ll return the favor

No need. Consider it a $35K celebration 🍾

I can’t celebrate this ser. My 9 month old wasn’t finished stacking the cheapies. 😂

The Olympus LSP node should open a zero-conf channel to accommodate the payment.

This 👆

Even if a channel is already open? Excuse my ignorance. I don’t know what zero-conf means.

Only if it can’t find a route to you

So that is the slight delay. Finding the route?

So in theory more channels, faster speed?

Not necessarily. You want a more direct channel.

Yeah and zero-conf means the channel will go active before the onchain transaction hits it's first confirmation so you don't have to wait forever for the payment to go through.
