Topic: What sparked the recent boost in XT node adoption? (Read 776 times)
I guess some nodes are finally catching up with the blockchain synching? If you never ran a full node before it would take some time.
Like it or not bitcoinXT is on the wild and it is there to stay until bitcoin core finally delivers proper scaling (if ever?). If not, it will take over. There is no point of any sort of attack on both camp or fear mongering.
I found the bump-up interesting. I downloaded an XT QT client and ran it for some time, but later shelved it. At the time, I had assumed that it would just fade away into the Land of Forgotten Fads. But evidently, I was wrong.

Once core implements its version to support larger blocks XT will be a thing of the past. I downloaded and ran XT a few months back and it seems to work just fine. But playing the "if you don't agree with me I'm going to take my ball and leave" attitude of Mike and Gavin is something I can do without.
When you can't determine how accurate the data is where would be a tipping point?
When the fear of being left behind outweighs the fear data accuracy. Tipping point moves are based on emotion snd bias and heresay as much as they are data.

I like this answer, it seems more plausible, but...
This fake XT node talk is really hilarious! So it coukd be impossible to really track XT node adoption?! The problem is that there is a tipping point with everything and if fake XT node counts help the real XT node count get to that tipping point those that want Core will be fucked (and by people on their side!)
The little kiddies over at reddit spiked the XT nodes. And that's exactly what it's going to be a brief spike, they will start to fall off shortly.
In fact it looks like it's already starting to hit the ceiling.

At first i thought the same but because we know this we also know there is no reliable tipping point now. So all this XT efforts are even more of a fly-by-night operation than they were before... so, no tipping point because we know the data is rigged.
When you can't determine how accurate the data is where would be a tipping point? There is none because the data has become useless.
That being said, it could still tank the market imo.
Hey retards, if you even have an ounce of brain, read this:
getnodes is never reliable as people can always use a botnet to run whatever clients they want. All you are doing is to make XT looks stronger, thank you.
For mining, >90% miners are not anonymous, and >68% has already announced their supports to a block size increase. They may not adopt XT, but don't you believe they will sabotage XT with their real names?
Nice try and try harder.

Some people who have been running bitcoin nodes saw that there was now a version of XT on Github that supported larger block sizes in a form that was easily downloaded and installed on Linux nodes. (No more difficult than upgrading a version of bitcoin-core, a few minutes work downloading, unpacking and copying over a bin file after running the test file.)
whelp the trouble of XT node is now been exposed: if someone suddenly engaged the transaction spam, it would lead to the disaster of bitcoin XT. you know, the size of block is doubling every 2 years. we won't know how would it be, but i can sure that if we have insufficient bitcoin users, those junk transactions would be appear frequently.
that's why we should not support the bitcoin XT, until the demand of bitcoin went explicitly increased.

What sparked the Aug. 15th spike in Butcoin XT node adoption?
The number of nodes on XT increased by more than 300% that day...what happened to generate that volume?
Thanks.
