Anyone here used lightning pool as a maker to provide liquidity with on-chain btc from their lightning node ? Thoughts on experience ? the UI looks confusing as fuck, imo, and im not even sure how to do the thing I want to do (lease out some onchain btc for short durations, get it back with some interest paid for the lease).

lease out some onchain btc for short durations, get it back with some interest paid for the lease

I don't think this is for onchain. As I understand it's for renting out a LN channel.

reply

Yes, but you need onchain bitcoin to open a channel to someone

reply

Oh, so you don't rent out a channel that's already been opened?

reply

No, it's for people who need inbound liquidity so you open a channel to them and get paid for it

reply

Ah, that makes sense.

Who pays for the channel close?

reply

The opener, which is the one who's selling

their documentation is...lacking in my opinion on details.
