Where can I find node URIs to paste or scan? #278

Closed dbolser closed 2 years ago

dbolser commented 2 years ago

Dumb question I know, but I don't know where to look for nodes to make channels with in Eclair.

BTW, the ACINQ node option says I need > 100,000 and < 50,000,000 sats, but when I try to create a channel I get a (brief) error saying I need > 4,000,000 sats (I think.. I'm adding the commas here for clarity but the error doesn't).

Many thanks,

Sorry, just found this: https://explorer.acinq.co/

Can I somehow filter the list to those nodes that will work with Eclair mobile?

dbolser commented 2 years ago

Not having better luck here: https://1ml.com/

Nodes there can be:

Any suggestions on where to get a 'good' list of nodes that Eclair can connect to would be great :-)

I put the node id of my wallet in here https://terminal.lightning.engineering/

But nothing came up

There is no such thing as a universally "good" list of nodes to connect to, that really depends on your usage patterns. You should think about how you want to use lightning:

OK, forget I said 'good', give me any!

  • do you want to mostly pay or receive
  • if you're mostly paying, who are you paying more often (then just directly open channels to them)
  • otherwise common "hubs" are good choices because they'll let you easily find routes to most places in the network (ACINQ, Breez, LNBig, etc)

When in doubt, just connect to the ACINQ node as the app suggests?

dbolser commented 2 years ago

For some reason the ACINQ node is throwing an error. The UI says I need

50k <50,000k (or something) but the brief error that pops up when I try to open a channel says I need > 400k (see OP).
