Assumptions:
- both nodes have enough liquidity available
- both peers have high level of trust
- both peers will participate with 50% when opening the channel
Before Starting:
- define total channel amounts
- define the peer1 that will open the channel
- define the peer2 that will send back 50% of the total channel capacity
Done in few simple steps:
- Find peer2 node
pubkey - check fees rate on the mempool.space
- Open a channel with peer2
- Wait for confirmation (10-20min circa)
- Peer1 to send an LNinvoice for 50% of the total channel liquidity
- When peer get the channel opening, peer2 will send back 50% paying off the invoice
What do you think?
Thsi si obviously a simple idea and it can be done in any lightning non-custodial wallet and nodes. Please share yoru thought or if you feel, share your strategy and tools to open balanced channels from day 0.
Thanks you
