Running a lightning node on a raspberry pi for kicks.
Using LND.
How the hell do I set the fee??
I have no idea what the default fee setting is or where to alter it?
Any pointers?
in your
~/.lnd/lnd.conf file, set the following stuff.
[Bitcoin]
bitcoin.active=1
bitcoin.basefee=0
bitcoin.timelockdelta=24 (Or whatever lock time you prefer)
bitcoin.feerate=0
then, use
lncli updatechanpolicy --base_fee_msat 0 --fee_rate 0 --time_lock_delta 24 (or again, whatever you prefer for lock time)
...to update any of your existing channels to be free.
I don't advise doing this, however. You are losing Bitcoin, by at least not attempting to pay yourself back for your channel-open fees when check-pointed on the blockchain.
EDIT: I'm a moron. I read that as "running it on a raspi. How do I set it
FOR FREE." I really need coffee...
