Dude, I'm a complete idiot, so from that perspective, opening a lighting node seems pretty daunting.

I'm working on learing all of this stuff, because I actually find it very interesting and important to do, but it's definitely going to be a while before I have a node up and running.

It's a long way, maybe you need this #694593 to start.

I have coinos hooked up to SN already. I'd like to eventually start running a full lightning node though.

Learning is a long curve. I am not saying that you should not do it or you will never be able to run properly a LN node. What am I trying to say is that for running properly a LN node, require time, patience, a lot of reading and testing and... some capital and hardware.

It took me 3 years, almost 4 (2018-2022) to really understand how all the mechanisms and tools for LN are working, testing all days all available solutions. btw... Saylor was barely discovering Bitcoin when i was already testing LN nodes...

And that's why I wrote all those guides, based on my experiments and learning so you and other noobs will read them and not have to take 3-4 years, but maybe 4-5 months until you will reach that level when you could say "ok I know what am I doing with this LN node, I know how to manage it."

Thanks for putting in the work. I appreciate SN providing seemingly endless resources for learning.

I'm stubborn and patient. Half a year of work to accomplish something doesn't even move the needle for me. I've put in far more time for way less.
