Get inbound liquidity on your SN channel (optional)

I would not call it optional. Is a must if you expect to receive sats from SN. Is not necessary to "buy something" with those sats. You can simply swap them out (using any of those multiple swap services or simply send some sats to any of your LN wallets, as a buffer cache.

I am still surprised to see that people do not use multiple LN wallets and are stuck with just one... some of them even ONLY with SN account LOL.

As I explained here in this guide how to manage your multiple wallets liquidity

I have very few sats that are not KYC (for now) and don't want to mix in my KYC sats. How many do you think i need to be able to have a buffer cache for just keeping liquidity in a private channel with SN?

Do you think running around a million sats per month through it would be enough to keep the channel liquid if it's only for SN. This will also give me a chance to slowly wash all my sats and convert to taproot.

The size of the channel depend of how big the payments are going through that channel. Liquidity is a bitch.

Probably not a ton, i Probably send and receive around 2k sats per day in either direction on SN depending on the day. I'm just trying to be very careful how I move my sats around because I'm afraid of fucking up and losing a bunch of them. They are not easy to get for me.
