the market reacted right and is currently waiting to see what's going to happen with the percentage of xt nodes. i do think we'll test the $200 level again.

At what point exactly Randy? At 25% XT nodes? 50%? Just curious.

Don't read too much into it. Blocks solved by XT nodes is the more important metric.

I have this nagging feeling that we will at some point in the next 6 months. There will be lots of volatility prior to the resolution of the fork (or block size issue).

that's for sure. traders are constantly looking at the amount of xt nodes that go live every day. currently it looks like the growth of xt nodes has slowed down quite a bit. it's at 13.72% now.

Nodes are very easy to fake. And there's no way to tell that the nodes are fake too. The other day a person hosted 400 fake nodes in a virtual machine.

Nodes probably dosen't do much or represent anything really , they can be faked as the user above said , the most important is the hashing power and right now we can see that 4 blocks has been mined .
and for what comes to people who are asking about the website then yes it's down : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1159945.0

Votes : https://www.blocktrail.com/BTC

That's correct, I also created a topic  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1160026.msg12220403#msg12220403)about block numbers citing stats from blocktrail (https://www.blocktrail.com/BTC/pools).

xtnodes.com is back up. Interesting.

Still seems to be having serious issues. I'm suspecting that their host is cutting them off because of the amounts of traffic they receive on top of yesterday's DDOS. Which is such a pity because it was used by people from both sides of the debate.

Yeah it's down for me again too. What a disappointment. That was my favorite site to track xt nodes.
