Node centrality ranks
Previous run results
Betweenness centrality
Betweeness centrality measures the number of shortest paths that pass through a node. A higher number of shortest paths a node has to any two other node in the network, the more likely they will be included in a route depending on the liquidity balance of each channel in the path.
Closeness/hopness centrality
Closeness/hopness centrality is a measure of how many hops it takes to reach any node on the network from a given node. The better the rank, the fewer the hops required to reach any and all nodes.
Eigenvector/hubness centrality
Eigenvector/hubness centrality measures influence of a given node in the network. Higher ranks imply a well-connected node that is linked to other well-connected nodes. A lower eigenvector centrality could also imply a new and/or underserved node in the network.
Maximum liquidity flow
Maximum flow is the highest amount of sats that can theoretically be pushed through a path if liquidity were 100% outbound. In reality, outbound across a path is likely 50% or less.
