The Lightning Network allows ultra cheap and almost instant Bitcoin transactions. By running a Lightning node, you can not only self-custody your Bitcoin on Lightning, but also earn sats by routing payments on the network.
Connect Zeus Wallet, Zap, or any other wallet that supports lndconnect to remotely manage and access your node from anywhere.
With the Advanced Settings feature, you can take control of your node and customize it to your needs. Personalize it with a name, enable larger channels, limit channel sizes, set your routing fees, optimize your routing strategy, add watchtower services, fine-tune its performance, and much more.
- LND 0.17.1-beta includes a number of bug fixes and optimizations, including:a reduction in CPU utilization due to the new mempool scanning safety logic, enchantments to the CPFP logic for anchor outputs, a fix to a peer/server deadlock, and a bug fix for the new taproot channel type that may have otherwise caused a channel to show as inactive until reconnection.
🔔 In case you missed it, our previous release of the Lightning Node app (v0.17.0-beta) brought the option to run your node in hybrid mode or Tor-only mode, along with the ability to open private channels, receive keysend payments, bugfixes, and more!
- Hybrid mode allows your node to make connections to peers (other nodes) over both Tor and clearnet, enhancing both latency and connection stability. This is enabled by default for new users, while existing users can activate it in Advanced Settings.
- You can now now choose to open private channels, which offer increased privacy but limited routing capabilities compared to public channels.
