Is there any current community driven efforts to increase the number of Full nodes?
there is one guy selling a service to add nodes to the network, but they are all IP addressed to his service (centralizing nodes), which is not what the community need or should be buying into.
id say anyone with other $1000 worth of btc should secure their stash by being a full node and not relying on third party light wallets. after all if light wallet businesses shut down their service, the software used to communicate transactions has nothing to talk to.
