Hi LN+ community! We run lnsec-research — a public mainnet LND 0.21.4 node dedicated to Lightning Network security research (channel jamming, balance probing, time-dilation detection). The node is online 24/7, Tor-only: 02043a172fc43c76e872083839a3061c698a05fa1af6ef5ebbdc7eb6f2dea4448a@uxekosd3eghafjnt2jfknl3u3szdvsllrjnb2r36zynjj3jxn7uf75yd.onion:9735 We are looking for our first inbound channel (any size, even 100k sats helps). This is a non-commercial research node — we cannot offer a swap in return yet, but we will: - rate you 5 stars and keep the channel active (research traffic flows through it), - share anonymized findings of our research with the community. If you can spare a channel to a research node — thank you! Connect to our onion URI above, or DM us here.

Update: to prove we control this node, here is a message signed with the node identity key (LND zbase32).
