open a big channel and swap out half and then open another big channel with the swap out funds
Do you mind elaborating on what you mean by "swap out?" My guess is you're referring to "Loop Out" but not sure. Thank you!

yes if you use thunderhub there is a swap out functionality using bolt.exchange or you can you use https://fixedfloat.com/. and send lnd payment to an invoice that is then swapped to your own btc on chain address then you can use your btc onchain funds to open a new channel
for example, open a 20M channel with breez, send 10M sats to fixedfloat swapping to onchain btc then open a new channel to WalletofSatoshi
this gives you 10M of inbound capacity from breez while maintaining 10M outbound from WalletofSatoshi and 10M outbound from breez
