In addition to opening channels with other nodes, you can request inbound channels from an LSP in exchange for a percentage of the liquidity held by your node. This is useful when you need inbound capacity to receive payments.

Requesting an Inbound Channel

​
Important Notes

  • The LSP determines the fees for providing inbound liquidity
  • Channel capacity and duration affect the total cost
  • Keep your node online during the channel opening process
  • After payment confirmation, wait for the blockchain confirmations advertised by the LSP (around 6 blocks, roughly an hour on mainnet)
