Doesn't say much. They could very well have their nodes hosted outside of the country. Most of the nodes you see hosted in Germany and the US doesn't mean they actually belong to entities in Germany or the US.
People love datacenters because it's cheap, fast and reliable, which their own connections mostly can't provide. I can rent a decent VPS with unlimited bandwidth for €10 a month and there are some foreign datacenters even cheaper.
It's perfectly suitable for hosting nodes.
Oh but it says a lot!
And you said it yourself, in those countries you can't even run a node so you're looking at better countries in term of infrastructure to run those.
Now, and this is the interesting part, why would a business in Nigeria run a node in the US?
Second, what kind of business are you running in that country that you can't even host a full node?
It doesn't mean they don't want to run nodes.
Again, I wasn't talking about how people feel and what people want!
Cause people think Nigeria is a crypto hub and they want to think Argentina is the new US in terms of bitcoin usage but...reality is pretty different.
Reality shows us that the entire African Continent has fewer nodes ...than...Lithuania.
And I'm willing to bet that 90% of this forum are having real trouble pointing Lithuania on the map!!!!
