What’s the best way to boost inbound liquidity on an open channel with my Lightning Node? I’ve got some sats for sending but no incoming sats at all. Appreciate any help!
Send some LN funds, that moves them to the other side of your channel, and creates the inbound liquidity you need.
Any exchange that accepts LN would work.
Persuade others to open a channel to your lightning node with their funds. (problem is how)
That way, it'll be all inbound liquidity, however they must have other active channels, otherwise you may not find any route when receiving funds from others.
Alternatively, if you're willing to pay for inbound liquidity, you can use Boltz: boltz.exchange
In case you're using Electrum, there's already a "Submarine swap" button in the 'Channels' tab's setting icon for that (it uses the same service)
Take note that you'll also be charged for the fee of the on-chain transaction that you'll receive.
To gain some inbound channels OP could participate in liquidity swaps:

Especially smaller nodes then often coordinate a circular rebalance once all the channels have been established.
While this won't gain inbound liquidity on an already open channel, it makes sure that the node is more balanced overall.
If you send me doge or ltc.
I can send you LN btc from my nicehash mining wallet.
I fact A general question is if I want to offer the service of sending btc From my Ln on nicehash to your LN
where could I advertise this?
Say up to 0.003 btc for
doge and a much smaller fee.
or for ltc and a much smaller fee.
I could try a new signature on Jan 1 2024.
The most I could do in a month is around 2000 usd worth.
That's the opposite of what OP needs. He doesn't have inbound liquidity, so he can't receive your LN funds.
That fits in Marketplace (Altcoins). I've tried this in Currency Exchange, but my topic was moved.
Why not juse use an instant exchanger for this?
