Channel Cleanups

Posted almost 2 years ago

I just closed 8 channels with 1m or less sats. If this affected you - I'm sorry. I didn't want to comment on all of the swaps that I was backing out of, but I probably should've provided some heads up. I intend on using the funds to open a few much larger channels with well established nodes in an effort to begin understanding more about how sats get routed through my node, how fees work, and how to automate things. This will be much easier if I have fewer large channels instead of a ton of small ones. 

My node has been running for about a year now and I'm proud of what I've learned, but it's time for some spring cleaning and new learning opportunities. For the last year I've had my base fees and PPM set to 0 for the most part, and was just watching. I think it's time to earn some fees and get more involved. If you have any tips or would like to offer your help in regards to LDNg and it's auto-pilot features, I'd love to chat! DM me or respond to this post.
