If you buy an incoming channel, you'll be obligated to 'use it or lose it" which is a pretty common condition for liquidity providers. It's pretty common to require you to use it at least once every 30 days.

Alternatively, if you open the channel yourself, you won't be obligated to anyone to use it. Because it'll be yours.

To open your own, you'll need to buy at least a 100k sats on-chain and transfer it to your Albyhub. You'll then have the option to open your own channel.

After you open the channel, you'll need to spend a little Bitcoin to make room to receive zaps. If you spend 1000 sats, you'll be able to receive a thousand zaps.

Or, buy another incoming channel and a kitten. Post photos of kitten to receive zaps. As long as you keep posting cute kitten pics and receiving zaps, your channel will stay open. Kitten pics is what really powers the lightning network.
