Having a high reputation is not a goal\nin itself, it's just a way to make your HTLCs more likely to be relayed. If\nyou always report confidence 0, then yes you will have a reputation of 1\nbut your HTLCs will still be rejected at the first sign of congestion.\n\nLe ven. 3 mars 2023 à 17:14, Clara Shikhelman \u003cclara.shikhelman at gmail.com\u003e\na écrit :\n\n\u003e Hi Thomas,\n\u003e\n\u003e Thanks for the example.\n\u003e\n\u003e - If c \u003c p then yes it gives it a higher reputation but the reputation is\n\u003e\u003e capped at 1 anyway, so by underestimating the confidence the node doesn't\n\u003e\u003e gain anything.\n\u003e\u003e\n\u003e Is there anything to gain from giving high confidence?
