First you have to download Lightning Network software that allows you to run a node, and follow the instructions to open it and fully sync the data. After you do that, then you have to open Thunderhub (or any other channel management software), and open a channel. |

After much hassle and going back and forth the terminal, I think I finally cracked it. I just finished preparing Thunderhub and I’ll be moving forward to opening my own channel now  |

LND Synced sir
synced_to_graph must be true Hello @NotATether, I finally opened my first channel and it’s active and running, and it’s also very much visible on 1ML.com,
Thanks for inspiring me to go through journey and add this to my shelve of knowledge.
Now you get merits for opening channel but not only for installing Thunderhub. |
