Title: lightning network node
Post by: nikisev on February 11, 2018, 06:48:11 AM
Hi
Ive looked for answer on internets but could not get full picture.
Can i actually profit from running lightning network node?
I have computer that sits doing nothing and awesome inet connection.
Im really interested in Lightning Network and i want to contribute...and be rewarded for that.
I dont understand how node maintainers benefit from supporting the node.

The entire Lightning Network is still in the testing stage, but if you are curious and brave you can make small purchases of stickers and t-shirts at the Blockstream store, which already accepts Lightning payments on the Bitcoin mainnet.
