LOL "hash and conquer" hahaha good name !

Zapstore is good too. The difference is that in Zapstore you will get ONLY oficial stable versions, not beta or alpha.
On Obtainium you can set if you want to install beta ((not full release) versions.
Of course this depend on you, if you want it. Is not obligatory.

not really. We are on v12.1 beta1 now, so are just minor fixes.
But you should consider using Obtainium and not using anymore playstore.
Seriouslly consider to read this guide
https://darth-coin.github.io/beginner/bitcoiners-mobile-device-en.html

but that have nothing to do with your sync issue.

Do not underestimate the data grabbers...
Yes indeed, is a good share, good info.
If I were him, I would not share such data, or at least not revealing names and such, just general data.
If I would be a peer I would not like to be seen my data in a public sheet.
People should be careful what they share out there... later they will scream that do not have privacy on internet LOL

This is a good thing. But people are too dumb to realize that is a smartt maneuver of WoS to push them into a bigger trap: the so called "self-custodial" WoS that runs on Spark crap (not LN) and soon they will be hammered by a full KYC.

IT'S A FUCKING TRAP! Stop using this crap WoS.

yes, ofc, are routers, each router charge a fee.

More or less, yes.
A LN payment usually takes by default 4 hops, but you can set to take more if you want.
Hops means, how many nodes will route your payment. Each node do not know too much about sender and receiver, that's called onion routing.

In regards of migrating to another device, please read and pay attention to the specific guide I wrote (see the links).

But don't start this until you do not fix your actual one. Is just a matter of sync, so not a big deal. It could be that your local files are borked. So a soft reset is enough, without closing channels or do anything stupid.

These charts should not be made public.
I understand that maybe the guy wants to share them as a study material, but in general, a public node runner should NOT reveal too much about his node management policies, tactics etc. LN became a very challenging competition between capital allocators that will seek to obtain profits from other "weaknesses" in managing a LN node.

From now on, every potential peer is your direct competitor...

stupid people opening channels with a scam...

See their other spy "service"...
The catch word here is "yield". That's how they fool clueless noobs to fall into this game of "passive income".

deploys your Bitcoin to generate yield while you maintain complete custody

TOTAL BULLSHIT. You are the yield...
Stay away from Amboss so called "services". Amboss is a trap.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED

but is 40000 normal?

Go to any LN explorer or run a public LN node with updated LN graph and check the total LN stats. It is around that number or maybe more. Just think about all those busted pleb nodes...

This is what you should see, around 10-12k online nodes
https://1ml.com/statistics

I just open one of my Zeus nodes and I see this. 16k nodes is the right number to see online.

it warns me again :)

Definitely you have sync issues. Logs will tell you. It warns you because is not syncing well.

That number is not important. You will NEVER have 0 zombies, that is impossible. Zombies are the old nodes and channels that went off or are in limbo during the entire history of LN. Your node will NOT use them.

Important is how many online nodes and channels you see.
Your payments arte not affected by the zombies.
But if you see very few online nodes and more zombies, that means you local graph copy is borked.

And you do not have to reset it every time you start Zeus. But is enough 2-3 times per week, so you will have most of the changes in public LN nodes.

The EGS is the responsible one that create the path finding ((based on that graph) on your own device, locally, not depending on any server or LSP.

Keep in mind that a public LN node that stays 24/7/365 online, it would have that graph updated all the time, at ms, with all possible available nodes. But a private node like embedded Zeus do not have to stay online 24/7, so it will have to get a copy from somewhere and read it. If you want to skip this, just keep your Zeus in persistent mode all the time and will not bother you anymore.

EGS is not served by neutrino peers. But yes, it start syncing after the neutrino sync.
EGS is the updated LN graph downloaded from a server, usually Olympus or others.
But if that graph is borked locally it could be a problem. Users not reset it so often and keep it for months.

I use to reset it every 2-3 days (even if I do not use it to pay in that time) so all my path finding is updated properly. Yes it could take few seconds more to start Zeus, but I have a proper node sync and never have any issues with paying.

Nevertheless you can switch to other EGS servers in Zeus, see the drop down list.
Always when are issues like these, logs are very helpfull and Zeus can provide quite good ones. Is not complete log, but enough to see what is going on.

1. Update to latest version https://github.com/ZeusLN/zeus/releases/tag/v0.12.1-beta1
2. Check your neutrino peers and reset EGS. If you didn't open it for some time, it could be outdated.
3. I wrote several procedures about these cases. Please before doing anything stupid, read them.

• https://docs.zeusln.app/for-users/embedded-node/faq
• #1332473
• #1283132
• https://darth-coin.github.io/wallets/zeus-node-advanced-usage-en.html

Most likely:

• you do not have enough space on the device - see the procedure to clear out neutrino files and compact channels db.
• is taking too much time to sync and gets hanged because of bad peers - see the procedure for that.

Is not about how much you used to bet. Is about sustaining a scam. Is about MORALITY.

That seems like a pretty safe bet at nearly 50/50.

That sounds exactly like it is: YOU are a victim. Brainded loser.
There's no such thing as "safe bet"... one is losing when somebody else is winning. There's NO VALUE exchanged. NOTHING is produced. And more than that, all those bets are literally used / sold to bigger players, that need these prediction markets to sell you back products/politicians/controlling you, you are being USED like an experiment.
You are LITERALLY feeding the beast you are trying to get rid of it...

But yeah people without any moral values cannot comprehend such thing.

LOL predyx scam... Why would you use that SCAM ? Oh to bet with your sats?
You are such a fool that will never understand the power of every sat you have and yet you are throwing them on gambling.

THIS WORLD IS SOOO FUCKED THAT DOESN'T DESERVE BITCOIN.

What am I missing?

Knowledge and a proper use of Bitcoin. You are more focused on gambling than learning more about Bitcoin.
Using custodial accounts is not recommended to be used for LN login. You do not have control of the keys that generate that login.

Weapons deserve a 2nd part.
