But one possible buzzkill. I am pretty sure RTL shows fees as millisats. In other words 243600 is 243.6 satoshis.
Yeah, column clearly notes "Fee (mSats)".
It feels very greedy setting a 0 base fee, and then a number of "2500" for the LOOP channel fee-rate mSats, just to keep it somewhat "stable" at this stage, and not bleed me dry.
On the other hand, is earning 243 sats on routing 243600 sats a fair trade? Should I reasonably charge more across the board? Is that too much? Not enough?
Not sure how these questions are answered, yet.
It's getting to the point where I want to reduce the number of times where I update all fees for all channels, then go back and re-micro manage each node - as I've already done.
Eg: WO nodes get really low fees. Other people get another level of standard fee. Big fish get charged a larger fee. Would dislike redoing that all to pull in more profit, without getting a sense of "what is fair to begin with" ?
Sorry, very confusing...
