Community list of good peers for Blixt

[Darth-Coin]

Description

OK, our Blixt community is growing. And many are new LN users that don't have home routing nodes or do not have enough knowledge about good peers to which they should connect their Blixt mobile node.

If you do not have a Github account (or don't want to use one) to be able to post here, just send us your proposal in Blixt Telegram group and we will add it for you.

So let's build here a list with LN peers that were tested, used, vouched etc by other Blixt users, so new users can inspire.
Please post only those peers you really used with your Blixt, not with your home routing node or if it was "recommended" by somebody else. We want real use cases with Blixt, due to the fact that Blixt is using "private channels" (unannounced), not "public" routing channels.

If you want to propose your own home routing node, please provide as much details you can about your node, conditions, other services you offer etc. We want to have a list of good positioned nodes, that could route nicely our mobile payments. So please don't post nodes that are not really capable for that.

Also post one proposal by post, so we can give reactions to each one.

Post here your proposal and give some details, like:

• Peer node name
• Peer link in LN explorer (Amboss or Mempool or any other explorer you use)
• Peer fees used, if you know them
• Experience you had with it, give us some details, good or bad, aspects etc, if it was cooperative, why do you choose it, if is offering also inbound channels
• contact, if you have one or the owner is willing to be contacted
• Score 1 to 10

SatoshiSamourai is a LND node you can open channels to and a

Dunder LSP server (Set Dunder LSP Server to https://lsp.btc-payserver.eu in Blixt App) which provides automatic inbound liquidity for your channel when opened in Blixt Wallet.

minimum channel size: 100k Sats
maximum channel size: 400k Sats

Dunder channels will be closed if there is less than 30% of liquidity on our side and no flow for more than 30 days.

ATTENTION: If you use these channels with hold invoices (for example with Zeuspay or Robosats) keep your Blixt App open until the payment is confirmed. Use Blixt persistant mode to avoid issues such as triggering a force closure of your channel.

If you have any questions: Telegram @SatoshiSamourai or [email protected]
