Yesterday I ordered a Node and I looking forward being part of the revolution but I‘m surprised about the strategy required to run the Node. For all newcomer it would be very helpful to get more content how to start and customize the own Node. I‘m not really interested in making money. I want to help getting the Lightning Network run, efficient, decentralized and secured and bring more anonymity to the user/transactions.

Thanks, great insides. There will never be THE right way, because there are too many different strategies working at the same time, so it’s a highly dynamic process. Not so nice for the individual wanna make money on fees, but good for the Lightning Network itself.

@@Bitcoinftm Hi Jonathan, first big thanks for bringing this content! For the last couple of weeks I am searching for info about this topic and I couldn't find a lot about it. Question ; do you have like an private/open group on telegram/discord where we could discuss this topic further between the people who are interested in it? As you said, even Bolsworth is still figuring it out, so for sure us ;-)

I have another way of thinking about the price, if you increase the charge when your liquidity is being low, the lack of Satoshis push the prices up, as we see on an open market. If you want those satoshis, you have to pay more. And, sometimes you have not to rebalance a channel that, let me say, have about to 30% on my side, I have a greater chance of route satoshis from another channel that have lower fees, and trace a route passing through this channel that have 30%, increasing his liquidity of my side, saving from a rebalance.

What's a good way to decide how much BTC to keep in your Lightning Node wallet?
@Wurmminister2 жыл бұрын
Depends how risky you are. How much money would you be confident to put in your wallet when you go out? That would be the amount you should put in

Mr. Levi, Thanks for doing this video. Super. Dr. Otto says a lot and doesn't say a lot more. Fascinating, his expansion on Rene Pickhardt and Stefan Waster's paper, implying that the lightning network algorithm is with child! Twins? A hard problem, indeed; leave it to an algo.

This topic has such great potential but it takes wayyyy too long to get to the topic. Jump to 25 min mark and skip all their small talk. Then they beat around the bush and it feels very low energy. How about this: “Hey guys, start with x as a channel min fee and then review it nightly. Lower it y if you see no action and raise it z if you do. You should have a min of X channels open, channel size, etc”. This should be a 6 min video. I was hoping for more. I’ll keep looking.

Mr. Levi, what is the effect going to be on the current lightning network when Taproot goes live? Boom!?
@Bitcoinftm3 жыл бұрын
There are a lot of different effects, but the big one is, you won't be able to see on the blockchain that a transaction was a channel opening/closing - which makes it even more private. Right now, you can see which transactions are multisig - that changes in Taproot.
