Automating Node Operations - Need a hand?
40 sats \ 3 comments \ @jmarbach 8 Apr 2023 bitcoin
Hi folks,
I'm building Encrypted Energy to help you increase your node's performance by automating your operations. If you're doing things manually today, your node won't remain competitive as traction ramps on Lightning. This includes tasks like rebalancing channels, changing channel fees, and even opening and closing channels.
I'm curious to hear what you're building on Lightning. Let's hear it. If you're needing free, 1:1 technical consulting, I'm happy to lend a hand.

I doubt any individual will be able to run a profitable lightning node, economies of scale are needed. At least I think...

I agree. However, we're not just targeting routing nodes. We see the promise of Lightning for enabling businesses of all kinds.
While routing nodes play an important role in the network, routing may end up similar to mining - expenses for routing will routinely rise to the cost of production.
And importantly, nodes that are not focused on routing have key business needs for enabling their own payments flow, and they won't want to be thinking about channel health -- they're focused on their own unique business challenges.
