Hey nostr:npub15ypxpg429uyjmp0zczuza902chuvvr4pn35wfzv8rx6cej4z8clq6jmpcx if you don’t have any luck finding a channel partner, let me know. I’d be willing to accept a channel from you if you bump it to 100k sats. Once open, I’d rebalance it and you should be able to receive funds from Ocean. Since you were only trying to open 21k, I’m assuming you’re looking at periodic payments. 50k equally balanced would be over twice what you originally planned for and should work fine for what you’re planning to do.
#Bitcoin Core and Core #Lightning finished syncing on the new machine and I’ve deposited 21K sats.
My questions now are:
1. Are there any nodes that that specialize in opening small channels?
2. What are the major concerns/factors that affect who you open a channel with?
3. Are there any privacy considerations?
4. Is 21K enough to do anything? I know it was possible (when fees were low) to open a channel to nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5' OLYMPUS for 10K sats and get 100K of inbound liquidity. I’m not sure of that would apply in this case.
My goal is just to open a small channel to start testing BOLT12 payouts from nostr:npub1qtvl2em0llpnnllffhat8zltugwwz97x79gfmxfz4qk52n6zpk3qq87dze
Any feedback/resources would be greatly appreciated. 🙏

Appreciate that Chriso. I sent some sats to my other node that is still syncing so maybe I’ll consolidate when it’s done and hit you up. I’ll send you a DM if I decide to move forward. Might have some additional questions.
Or maybe we can try 0xchat? I see you have an npub.cash address so maybe you’ve tried it out.
