I want to open a 100,000 sat payment channel to someone for podcasts. Thanks

Open for 500000 sats, can you open to mine?

Done also, you are my first channel! Trying this out. My address is 022c6067d6b87f1714a4f3936e010aefacbf5c66ccd5bcb62f71095032a0dda1e5@kpbtnbbfm7ca6xkgnfcwqi5gbokbu5wv5wvlps3g3eigwlxgjxh7xxad.onion:9735

Hi there I’m trying to open a LN channel from my node to you. But every address I click on from your link gives me the message ā€œcheck lightning addressā€ and it fails to open the channel.
I’m using my umbrel lightning node.
Sorry for being a noob.
thanks

Hi @skintone,

Which software do you use for opening?

Hi,
I use the lightning node app from umbrel ( called LND)
thanks for any advice

Try it with RTL. The app is also available in the Umbrel Appstore. With RTL you can first open a peer to this node. If this does not work, this node is straight offline. If you then open a peer, you can open a channel directly.

OK thanks for the advice! I’ll try that.

Rene’s suggestion is a good one. Let me know if you still can’t connect. I’ve been out of town and can’t investigate until this evening at the earliest. Sorry for the delay.

Hi there ,
Yes I still can’t connect. I clicked on the link you provided which took me to your page. But to make you a peer using RTL it requires an alias ( Node Up or Shut up) and a lightning address, which I can’t find, as everything I put in was rejected as not being a proper lightning address.

i.e, what do I put in this box?

Look in 1ml.com

Finally back on-site. Glad to hear that worked. That would’ve been my suggestion.

Hi again Rene1980,
Regarding the RTL app, do you happen to know how to back it up? ( seed phrase etc) in case of crash?
The LND lightning app makes this seed easy to find but I cannot find anyway to do this in the RTL app.
Thanks again!

Hi @skintone,

I don’t know exactly what you mean. On the left side, under Lightning, you’ll find the option to create a backup.

Hi Rene1980,
as you can see from my screenshot below, I can’t find the ā€œbackupā€ option.
Sorry if I’m just being dense.

Hi, I have set up my first Lightning node and would be very happy if someone would open a channel to me (Minimum Channel size 1 Mio. sats).
