What this measures

Average channel size divides total public capacity by the number of channels. Rising averages indicate professionalization — routing nodes deploying serious liquidity rather than hobbyist experiments. Falling averages can mean broader grassroots adoption through many small channels. Combined with node and channel counts, this metric sketches how the network's structure is evolving.
