Hi all,

i observed the following:

Until some weeks/days ago the number of Full Nodes, which doesn't belong to a country on the list of https://bitnodes.earn.com/ were always <~200 .

A friend of mine told me he is sure, that around 1 week ago the number of Full Nodes using Tor was 153, when he looked at the site.

On websites, which indicate websites from time to time you can see that the number of Full Nodes, which doens't belong to a country were always low. https://web.archive.org/web/2019*/https://bitnodes.earn.com/

Atm around 20% of the Full Nodes are .onion ....

what happened?

is a group or someone trying to get >50% of all Full Nodes by setting up many new ones (hidden behind TOR)?

do many Full Node Op's switch to use TOR? why? amount of Full Nodes totally is stable? does somebody have more Data to look at?



i noticed it, because a friend and me had set up a Full Node in the last weeks. If anybody want to appreciate this btc (;


peace
