Beyond push payments this feature allows for two-way communication with a client. So this can help drive AMP route sharding, CoinJoin negotiations, as well as sending money to friends with emojis or depositing into exchanges with account ids.

=Using key send=
==Receiver side==
Enable in config. accept-keysend=1 in Application options.

==Send to receiver==
lncli sendpayment --dest=03e691f81f08c56fa876cc4ef5c9e8b727bd682cf35605be25d48607a802526053 --final_cltv_delta=144 --amt=100 --keysend

It can enable [[Unilateral (permissionless) payments]]

{{ALERT|Your node alias will be publicly visible. Do not put ANY personal information here (like your name).}}

Want to set an alias for your [[Umbrel]] Node? Follow these steps:

# Log in to your node [https://www.howtogeek.com/311287/how-to-connect-to-an-ssh-server-from-windows-macos-or-linux/ using SSH]. Usually this means opening a terminal and typing '''ssh -t umbrel@umbrel.local'''. The user is '''umbrel'''. Default password is '''moneyprintergobrrr''' for older versions of Umbrel. New versions use the dashboard passord. When typing your password you usually see nothing (for safety).
# (Optional) change your default password by typing '''passwd'''
# Open the config file '''sudo nano umbrel/lnd/lnd.conf''' . lnd is small for LND, there are no i's. It will ask you again for your password (same as before), and you will again not see you entering the password.
# You are now in the editor. Add '''alias=SOMENAME'''. This must be added to the first paragraph. Somewhere below the block '''[Application Options]''', not in a different block.
# (Optional) set '''color=#ff0000''' or any other hex color, on a new line, just below alias. [https://www.color-hex.com/ find a nice color].
# You will see the commands you can give at the bottom. The caret '''^''' means CTRL button. '''^X''' is eXit, so use CTRL-X to exit the file. Confirm you want to save the buffer using Y. Press enter for file name (don't change).
# After you have exited the editor, type '''cat umbrel/lnd/lnd.conf''' to look at the content of the file.
# Then restart your Umbrel node. You can do this properly from the Umbrel web interface (Settings, Restart)
# IF you have public channels, it will take (max) 2 days for the new node to become visible on [https://1ml.com 1ml.com].
# If you have [[RTL]] installed you should see the new node name after a restart of RTL, or after logging in again. A node clean restart (using the web interface) should also restart RTL.

If your terminal freezes you may have pressed CTRL-S. Unfreeze by CTRL-Q.

Gossiping

Nodes tell each other about the Lightning Network in a process called Gossiping. Information about nodes and edges (channels) are gossiped. You get gossip information from your peers, and send to your peers, too.

A node that just started will not have information. It needs a connection to the [[Network|network]] to get information. A connection is made by creating a [[Channels|channel]].

Setting alias and color for Umbrel

MiltonPusser:

Want to set an alias for your [[Umbrel]] Node? Follow these steps:

# Log in to your node [https://www.howtogeek.com/311287/how-to-connect-to-an-ssh-server-from-windows-macos-or-linux/ using SSH]. The user is '''umbrel'''. Default password is '''moneyprintergobrrr''' .
# (Optional) change your default password by typing '''passwd'''
# Open the config file '''sudo nano umbrel/lnd/lnd.conf'''
# You are now in the editor. Add '''alias=SOMENAME''' to the bottom of the file.
# You will see the commands you can give at the bottom. The caret '''^''' means CTRL button. This means '''^O''' is CTRL-O (to save) and '''^X''' to exit the file
# After you have exited the editor, type '''cat umbrel/lnd/lnd.conf''' to look at the content of the file.
# Then restart your Umbrel node. You can do this properly from the Umbrel web interface.
# IF you have public channels, it will take (max) 2 days for the new node to become visible on [https://1ml.com]. If you have [[RTL]] installed you should see the new node name after a restart of RTL.

|<strong>Thunderbolts and lightning, very very... exciting!</strong>

Lightning enables quick, cheap and scalable Bitcoin payments. The Lightning [[Network]] scales blockchains and enables trust-minimized instant [[Payment|payments]] by keeping most transactions off-chain and leveraging the security of the underlying [[Bitcoin|blockchain]] as an arbitration layer.

This is accomplished primarily through "[[Channels|payment-channels]]”, wherein two parties commit funds and pay each other by updating the balance redeemable by either party in the [[Channel|channel]]. This process is instant and saves users from having to wait for [[On-chain transactions|block confirmations]] before they can render goods or [[Services|services]].

[[Channels|Payment channels]] are trust-minimized, since any attempt to [[Fraud|defraud]] the current agreed-upon balance in the channel results in the complete forfeiture of funds by the liable party.

By moving payments off-chain, the cost of opening and closing channels (in the form of [[On-chain transactions|on-chain]] transaction fees) is ammortized over the volume of payments in that channel, enabling [[Payment|micropayments]] and small-value transactions for which the [[On-chain transactions|on-chain]] transaction fees would otherwise be too expensive to justify. Furthermore, the Lightning Network scales not with the transaction throughput of the underlying blockchain, but with modern data processing and latency limits - payments can be made nearly as quickly as packets can be sent. All of this with low [[Fees]].

[[Hash Time-Locked Contracts]] (HTLCs) allow transactions to be sent between parties who do not have a direct channels by routing it through multiple hops, so anyone connected to the Lightning Network is part of a single, interconnected global financial system.

In short, the Lightning Network enables scalable blockchains through a high-volume of instant transactions not requiring custodial delegation.

No route error

If your node says it has no route, this can mean some things:

== You have no channels ==
You might have no channels at all. Start with [[Opening channels]]!

== Channels are too small ==
* If you want to send 100k sat, but your channel is only 50k sat, that will not work. Open larger channels.
* If you want to send 100k sat, and have enough channels, just not ONE which has enough balance, your payment must be split using [[AMP]]. Make sure the wallet supports it, and make sure you enabled AMP in your wallet.

== Your node does not know about all routes yet ==
When sending a payment, your node calculates a route to the destination. Maybe your node has no complete view on the network yet, because it's very new? Wait some days, and/or open more channels, so you have more peers to get information from. The process to get network information is called [[Gossiping]].

BOS Score

2020-12-30T09:17:35Z

MiltonPusser: /* Resources */

[[BOS Score]] is node scoring developed by [[Lightning Labs]] to approximate the quality of a node. You can view your BOS score lightning.computer] or [https://lightningwiki.net/bos/ here] (sortable).

= Purpose =

It was originally designed for users opening private channels. Later it was expanded for ranking public routing nodes.
* It was used to for providing a list of nodes for [[Autopilot]] to use a candidate targets for automatically opening channels.
* It was used for identifying the initial set of nodes that can lend liquidity in [[Lightning Pool]]

= Calculation =
"They’re just opaque scores" -- Alex Bosworth

Some information [https://github.com/openoms/lightning-node-management/blob/master/BosScore.md about calculation can be found here]

= Adding your node =
Should go automatically. Make sure your node has channels, is visibile on the graph (you can check this on [https://1ml.com/ 1ml.com] for example)

Lightning Pool

2020-11-03T06:37:28Z

MiltonPusser:

Lightning Pool allows you to buy and sell [[Liquidity]]. Someone who needs incoming liquidity would enter a bid order. Someone offering liquidity enters a ask order.

Introduction here: https://lightning.engineering/posts/2020-11-02-lightning-pool/ . Whitepaper: https://lightning.engineering/lightning-pool-whitepaper.pdf

=Installing=
Clone https://github.com/lightninglabs/pool anywhere on your node running [[Lnd]]. Make && make install. Then run poold.

=Account=
An account is needed to work with Pool. It's an onchain transaction. Type '''pool accounts new''' to see how that works. After creating one, wait for the confirmation, then you can place orders.

=Orders=
If you want to offer liquidity (from your account balance) you do '''pool orders submit ask'''. Replace ask by buy if you want to buy liquidity.
