I've just setup Raspibolt and am doing a dive into this. I don't know what number of channels it can handle.
I'm curious as to how much resources having over 200 channels takes. Would also like to know how many transactions pass through your node. If you don't mind sharing.
I think lightning is the way to go, but want to be a bit more comfortable with the technology before dumping large resources in. I keep hearing the warnings about not committing coin you are not willing to lose.
If you are willing to commit to a small node this is my info: https://1ml.com/node/036ccd87044f0e6e1d115e67a5aec2440d56d498e8eb4b12c81fce7ac342ff8f20
I would be willing to allocate 600,000 to the channel.
