Lightning-Network-Node auf Offshore-Hardware

Lightning channels are state machines that depend on both peers being reachable when a force-close timeout hits. A stable IPv4 + .onion endpoint isn't optional — it's what keeps your channels alive through reorgs, your peer's downtime, and routine restarts. Our IPs don't cycle; you keep the same /29 for the lifetime of the plan, and we publish a 14-day notice if hardware changes force a re-IP.

NVMe is mandatory for the channel database (LND's bbolt or CLN's SQLite suffer badly on rotational disk). Sized to vps-business or higher because the bitcoind backend on the same box drives most of the disk and memory budget. For routing nodes that earn fees, ded-shield gives you the cores to keep up with HTLC churn.
