5 sats \ 0 replies \ @DarthCoin 7 Oct \ on: Setting up my LN node on my Start9... issues lightning
There are many things you didn't mention here, to be able to give you the correct diagnostic:
- you open a private or public channel
- how did you open it? buying it from https://lsps1.olympusln.com/ or simply searching Olympus in any LN explorer and open a channel towards that node with your onchain funds? Usually Olympus is offering also inbound liquidity when you buy a channel and you can customize your outbound liquidity too.
- being a new node, the first channel open take time until is well known in the whole LN graph. So have more patience or open 1-2 more channels with different peers.
- do not open channels lower than 500k if is private channel and lower than 3M sats if is public. Read my guides to find out why.
I think is the way around: YOU are the one not prepared for LN. You need to read more and test more.
