Solid digest. Net −11 BTC active capacity drop stands out. The 4.2 BTC ACINQ↔Binance close looks like routine LSP rotation.
Hey hey capacity jump!! But 5.0 the wrong way 😩
2 BTC opened and 5 BTC closed on same day shows how dynamic Lightning is. LOOP closing with LNBiG Hub-2 might be rebalancing after large swaps. Network steady at 17.4k nodes/41k channels - still growing despite big closes. Lightning never sleeps.
