The value of a new lightning channel from a node has nothing to do with its name, but somehow we think it does. The data shows we're unnecessarily biased towards branding.

These metrics are great for Amboss, Bitcoin, and Decentralization. #lightningnetwork

I'm blown away. Lightning is insanely efficient. I just watched someone get $7,118 of liquidity for $10. That's a total payment processing cost of 0.14%. >20x cheaper than VISA. No chargebacks. Instant. No liquidity management required if you buy channels. https://magma.amboss.tech

Are there any getAlby users here that can help test the magma LSP? We keep getting orders but they aren't proceeding past the paying step. Is there a UI issue preventing them from paying? Any help would be greatly appreciated

Send me your ramen tips please 😅

I was told LNMarkets needs some extra liquidity for their exchange. Here's an invoice to gift them ~7M sats of inbound. lnbc162150n1p536rqkpp536uvurjracvntl8hnmu2ag6vh3nce39gf4lm69dx6u5mdp93ya0sdr02pskjepqw3hjqstdvfhhxueq2d6x7un9yq5y7unyv4ezqj2y8gsrvepnvymnge3n95ekxcfn956r2dmy95ukgv3h94jxyepe89snsetz8yekz2gcqzzsxqrrs0sp55e3ddvdk8zggp6fhwwtylsdxqsy9pc4ax22xhyx54faxfhf9cnlq9qxpqysgqr24v2w0er5504u6a4pfzczz9fc25zvllgjp223g022lttzuuqkjrsxpje2m8mrprwrefl9g584dyw2kvrae4yp2e4h4nmlw926alq5sq08d3c2 #lightningnetwork

The total lightning node count trend did a sharp reversal in July. Obviously the tech has always been strong, but what changed in July? h/t nostr:nprofile1qqsz4uq7p44arw0mh83agv2h6ezep7e8mnau403g0p99svhp00hms7cpzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qg4waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t09uq3uamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3dwp6kytnhv4kxcmmjv3jhytnwv46z7gfeph5 #lightning

It's pretty unfortunate that we collectively give so much attention to people that cause controversy instead of to those that move forward consensus.

Intelligence for Rails nostr:nprofile1qqsz4uq7p44arw0mh83agv2h6ezep7e8mnau403g0p99svhp00hms7cpzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qg4waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t09uq3uamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3dwp6kytnhv4kxcmmjv3jhytnwv46z7gfeph5 has been updated which improves upon channel closing logic. Selecting which channels to close is a surprisingly challenging problem since it must value the opportunity cost of liquidity deployed in channels. Since liquidity leases are so much higher yielding than typical routing events but far more infrequent, the opportunity cost valuation is very complex. In order to fulfill a lease quickly, Bitcoin needs to be immediately available, which means that Bitcoin must be onchain. As a result of the increased intelligence (and fresh data feeds to Rails) we can cycle Bitcoin more quickly, allowing faster discovery of new routing opportunities on the network. Deployed capacity of our Rails cluster in the near term has sharply dropped following the upgrade, which gives us the opportunity to redeploy in more strategic zones.
