155 sats \ 2 replies \ @nikotsla 6 Apr \ on: Liquidity squeezing from your node lightning
Just to add more info, this strategy get my attention: https://github.com/zapomatic/zap_lnd_tools?tab=readme-ov-file#cooperative-fee-strategy by @zapomatic
With time you can identify this type of node and act accordingly:
  • Blacklist
  • Only open big channels so you can close the channel without losing sats once the liquidity is in the other side (capital intensive).
  • Set max_htlc so low that the drain take a lot of time an effort

Static HTLC max is good. The dynamic HTLC setting has proven to be a bad idea with current tech--as balances in flight mess with liquidity observation--a solvable problem but not one that is currently solved.
Currently, it's better to leave HTLC max static. Using inbound fee discounts and setting fee buckets has proven to be a nice way to not need to manually rebalance and allow flow to be more natural.

Yes, that "valve method" by Rene Pickhardt works pretty nice. Also is forcing users to use MPP.
