Not everyone will take a regulated path with their lightning nodes and that's a good thing!
The lightning network is constructed with bountiful redundancy in many jurisdictions if one node becomes more restricted because of regulation.
What Reflex enables is translating a business policy into operations to simplify working within the shifting regulatory landscape and an organic payment network. This works not by imposing a policy on others, but by self-governance.
Excellent newsletter from the @LN Markets team diving into key nuances of what regulatory interpretations mean for the lightning network.
As we'll share in upcoming Reflex updates, there are potentially severe operational impacts to adopting restrictive "bubbleboy" peer policies.

A 1 million sat channel (0.01 BTC) on the Lightning Network can now settle payments up to $612 at a time.
A 10 million sat channel (0.1 BTC) can settle payments up to $6123 at a time.
This can happen millions of times over the life of a channel.

Lightning Network settlement capacity has reached a new all time high at $268M in USD terms.
In BTC terms, the capacity has decreased while anecdotal transaction activity has increased. This is a testament to the efficiency of settlement on LN.

Our goal with Reflex is to operationalize defensible business policies.
Reflex is now in beta to reduce the regulatory hurdle that many LN companies encounter but rarely discuss.

Our Magma marketplace is currently supply constrained, meaning more buyers than sellers for liquidity on the lightning network
If you run a lightning node and are looking to earn some non-custodial yield, start selling channels on Magma.
