Btw I have questions to both greenlight and economical side of LSP idea.

For greenlight, as far as I understand it outsources channel updates signing and refund destinations, but it should be able to do things like:

- publish an old channel state and let peer take all the funds (peer is greenlight).

- do nothing for long enough when peer publishes an old channel state and let them take all the funds.

If we trust them not to, this is a custodial solution.

For LSP, I would really like to know how well do current ones do and how much payment activity per channel on average do they need to be profitable.

Greenlight is not the peer, you can open chans to whichever peer you want

Watchtower can solve the second

Watchtower cannot undo the publishing of an old state. It can only publish justice transactions.

nostr:npub1ykgzq83frx525etgezysqxf25480qrnvp962tvzr9afxzj5yrmyqp3mpsh that was meant to be an answer to a second point about peer publishing an old state and your node not being woken up

Ah, my mistake

I merely mean that any peer may turn out to be a node they control or have an agreement with.

Well sure but thats kinda moving the goal post a bit isnt it? From claiming that greenlight is effectively the same as WoS to now there is a potential scenario of collusion between multiple actors to steal your spending balance from a mobile node

Can any peer open a channel to a Greenlight node?

SBW 2y ago

It's effectively the same as WoS with these things in play and them not being clear enough on their site which only communicates an ease of use.

You can't solve the first though, which is the worst.
