KnockOnWood

KnockOnWood

Reborn under a stronger sky, ready to play the bigger game. ⚡️ Xeon E5 1660 3.3Ghz 6-core CPU 🐏 64GB of ECC RAM 💽 OpenZFS mirrored pool with 6 parallel SSD's 🔋 UPS with 1.2kWh battery I was managing a smaller node which reached a sensible reputation on Plebnet, and thanks to some lucky incidents I leveled up and am now building KnockOnWood's capacity, evaluating each next step as I go. The growth of the node won't be fast, but I expect it to be steady. I plan to reach 6BTC total cap for starters, which is probably going to further increase as long as I get satisfying results. The node is automated, I coded my own logic for fees and rebalances, and my scripts have been abundantly put to the test with my previous node, to the point where I trust them with my liquidity. Fees usually start from 1000ppm and go from there depending on traffic, or lack thereof, so we will have to probably wait a few weeks until forwards reach best performance. There's a medium-long term project behind KnockOnWood, which will be revealed in case the right conditions present themselves, until then we will at least try to be an excellent peer to our valued vertices.

Hubness Rank: 13523

Weighted for channel sizes: 13523

Lower numbers are better. Measures influence of a given node in the network. Better ranks imply a well-connected node that is linked to other well-connected nodes.

Hopness Rank: 13523

Weighted for channel sizes: 13523

Lower numbers are better. Measures how many hops it takes to reach any node on the network. The better the rank, the fewer the hops are required to reach other nodes.

Betweenness Rank: 13523

Weighted for channel sizes: 13523

Lower numbers are better. Measures how often this node falls on the shortest path between other nodes. The better the rank, the more likely the node will route a payments.
