I am going to bring this topic up in Ep.2 for sure. The client has two options and those options can fluctuate based on how much theyre getting paid but generally they have option 1: Custodial alby/zbd are probably top 2 remaining custodial services since WoS is gone in US, anyway.
2. Run own node. This can be done on Zeus since Zeus added an embedded node into their app and they give out a free LNaddress with each embedded node or they can run their own node on Voltage or at home.
If they run a node at home all they would need is one channel and this channel they should open with the pool directly and then either swap out or buy something to get their inbound. When the channel fills they can loop out or continue just buying stuff to get more inbound. Each client would have their own personal preference. The cost savings is determined by volume of events multiplied by on chain fee rate.
