LSP
- liquidity service provider = when you offer channels liquidity
- lightning service provider = when you offer wallet, infrastructure, nodes etc
I think we should make a clear difference between these two, are not the same thing.
Great detail, so is a liquidity provider just sending liquidity to an existing chanel ad charging for it, meawhile the lightning provider is providig both, liquidity ad channels openig?
reply
yes indeed.
Example:
- megalithic is just a liquidity provider
- Zeus is a liquidity (through Olympus LSP) and lightning provider through embedded node
- Green / Phoenix is a liquidity (Greenlight / ACINQ) and lightning provider (embedded LN node)
- Blixt is just a lightning provider (you open channels with whoever you want, even that they also have a small LSP liquidity node for quick onboarding)
