XT nodes falling down. Looks like people started prefer bip 100 blocksize solution.
not the people.. the big miners.
Only miners count in the end. However, it is good to see that number of users running XT nodes is down under 900 and falling, now only 810 on
BitNodes. Novelty wearing off perhaps. Do not discount Mike Hearn ambition though probably has a few tricks left to pull. Considering how negatively bitcoin market reacted to Bitcoin XT introduction he should pull it.
Mike will get what he wants in my opinion. Lighthouse. Possibly will advocate for it in BIP 100 since it does no harm.
In some way, maybe this was the plan all along, split up the community on extremes, then a moderate approach creeps in that still enlarges the blocksize, but is reasonable enough to be accepted by both extremes. Win WIn
