Have you added our mint to your #CashU wallet yet?

You could be enjoying a headache-free transactional enviroment within your walket today.

You shouldn't trust anyone, including us.

However, for almost a year now, we have been providing nodes with lightning liquidity for the lowest prices. We have also opened hundreds of channels without a single issue.

CashU, on the other hand, is different. It requires a level of trust more than the lightning network. And this is our new venture. We are entering this new domain with the same intentions we had when we first started LNServer: To provide fellow bitcoiners with great quality services.

Check out our prices and compare them to our competitors, we could have easily made them just as high.

Although we are profit orientated, making money is not our goal here, high quality service is.

WE DO NOT STEAL, LIE, SCAM OR RUG PEOPLE. We never have and never will.

The only thing we can tell you now is to see how we operate and judge yourself.

It could be, the swap starter probably wanted the bigger nodes. who knows.

Become unruggable with our new CashU mint.

Why risk your stash with an unknown mint?

Just add our mint to your favorite #Cashu wallet and you're good to go.

Anyone interested in joining this swap? Only one space left!

Hi lassdas!

It's your right to be curious and to seek answers! So here they are:

Regardless of the capacity being ordered, on-chain fees are more or less the same.

The reasons behind our pricing structure is that

A) Funds that get used to open channels with will be locked away from us for the life of the channel

B) Funds that get used to open channels with are at a MUCH HIGHER risk than when stored in our cold storages

The bigger the amounts of funds used, the bigger the risk is on us. That's why you see our prices increasing sharply with bigger capacities.

Additionally, as far as we know, we're the only LSP to offer spending capacities with every channel.

However, we are still MUCH cheaper than other LSPs. Check out their prices compared to ours.

If you have any more questions, please don't hesitate to ask 🤗

We offer incoming liquidity (for receiving payments). However, no matter the capacity of the channel, receiving will turn into sending with enough time and after a number of transactions and vice-versa.

The sats in any channel move from side to side of the channel. Sats on your side of the channel can only be sent. Sats on your peer's end can only be received.

After receiving sats (they are now on your side of the channel) they can only be sent.

After sending sats (they are now on your peer's side of the channel) they can only be used to receive.

Yes it is difficult to understand.

Don't worry if you think you don't need this much capacity (2m). Just know that we're always ready to help you if and when you need us.

Learn the basics and ask us whatever questions you may have.

Thank you for the kind words 🤗

We usually recommend a minimum capacity of 2 million sats. The smaller the channel, the harder it is to break even profitability wise.

Check our web app for our prices if you're interested as we are, by far, the most affordable LSP on the net.
