I liked the concept of margin and spread rates to optimize for earnings while keeping liquidity balanced. It would be interesting to introduce some of your insights into the Hydrus equation to see how it works.
It helps a lot to take a look at the issue from a different perspective. Really interesting, thanks for sharing!

Hydrus v0.2.0 is out!
This release introduces:
- Channels routing policies are adjusted based on the channel state (capacity, local balance) and the amount of satoshis forwarded in the last activity period. In additon to this, Hydrus adjusts the maximum HTLC value to 80% of the local balance.
- CLI commands. Agent instructions and scores queries now have their own command to execute them separately, concurrently or in a sequence.
- Built-in tasks scheduling. Choose how often to open/close channels or update routing policies without having to use systemd timers or cron jobs.
- New open heuristic: `channels.block_height` . Good channels are typically kept open for longer because they are profitable or useful, take the age of channels into account when choosing peers with this new heuristic.
- Dependencies upgrades: all dependencies have been upgraded to their latest version.

GM nostr!
Today I'm publishing a project I have been working on for the last couple of months that aims at automating the liquidity management of #lightning nodes.
It's called Hydrus and the source-code is at https://github.com/aftermath2/hydrus.
Hydrus opens channels automatically based on the state of the network graph (centrality, routing, connectivity heuristics).
It also closes existing ones based on their characteristics (status, capacity, age) and past performance (number of forwards, fees collected, uptime and more).
You can find out more at the repository, if you have any feedback or suggestions I would really appreciate them!
