I'd say that depends on the person and the scenario. Both have risks since they're both hot wallets. I'm coming up on 5 years running a node later this year and I haven't lost any sats. I think my WoS has 1 sat in it that I can't get out though ๐Ÿ˜‚

Of course. A lightning node operator is a money transmitter. It is taking the law time to catch up to that. But anytime a person or business handles someone elses money, a license is needed.

Surely youve had some force-closed channels! Id count that under sats wasted
