Wonder if he is using no-KYC sats? 🤔🤔

I also wonder how these very public figures of the Lightning Network (others include Alex Bosworth as well as regular but visible Plebs) will react when authorities decide to go after people facilitating unregulated money transfers, selling liquidity, and making a visible profit from it. Rebuild from scratch? How easy it is to just go anon after building up such a visible node?

Simple: ask those "authorities" where is the proof they have for that "authority" or "jurisdiction" over your own money. There's NONE. So they can go fuck themselves...

Just like with mining when China banned mining. That didn't eliminate mining, it just caused it to exist outside of China.
Most miners couldn't operate underground because they couldn't get a supply of electricity unnoticed. An LN node, thanks to Tor, does not have this same issue.
Might someday a large node operator exit the business? Sure. Does that stop me from being able to use bitcoin on LN? No.

Yes, very true.
With the efforts I'm putting now in building my node, I just wonder if I should have done a better job at being anon from the beginning. Already using tor, but with social media presence, pretty easy to figure out who I am.
But I guess I could start a new completely anon node, open similar channels, and slowly transfer old sats to the new node, or even use taproot to start with new on-chain sats that cannot be linked to channel opening transactions like it was possible before. A node can become quite productive quite fast, looking at Kraken, Zero Fee Routing, etc who (re-)built a big node in no time, so I guess it's just a matter of doing it.

Connect The World EP021 | Carsten Otto | Lightning Network Node Operator | Rebalance-LND | Germany
"Edward and Stef talk with Carsten Otto, a developer and Lightning Network Node specialist from Germany. His routing node is at the top of the BOS score list!
He started in 2018 building his first node. And from May 2021 he really started building his routing node! He said that it was a combination of boredom and a rekindling of his initial excitement about the Lightning Network: “I wanted to understand what my node was doing, how it is being used, and how I could help the network by running it.”
They also talk about rebalance-lnd, this script Carsten wrote is a real must have for any node operator to help you rebalance your channels and also taking into account future profit!
So, get your node running and watch and Listen this Episode on your favorite Lightning Channel!" - Jonī Kyasshu
