1 satoshi at this moment. I may raise the requirement if there is an evidence of spam.

Very interesting thread! Watching. And the short description comparing BIP's is a must. It has been floating for quite some time but many people seem to have never read it.
That being said, good to see quite a bit of support for big blocks from more than half of the hashrate. But until they're validating blocks with another client, it doesn't really mean anything.

Why is that? Neither alternate client nor core supports big blocks now. Either client can be modified to support bigger blocks when the community agrees.

It is very interesting to see that Bitcoin Core nodes are not decreasing, while the total number of nodes is increasing. This suggests that many BIP101-supporting nodes are new ones.

Great thread, posting to show my appreciation and to watch it. Interestingly enough a lot of people are not aware of BIP 100.

What does BIP101 mean? Does it mean that some want an official core update with bigger blocks and you should support BIP101 for that? then what is the difference between BIP101 Core and XT?

BIP101 is Gavin's proposal: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1153957.msg12153253#msg12153253BitcoinXX = Bitcoin Core + BIP101 + some non-consensus-critical functions unrelated to block size

Looks like the reason we are not seeing a more rapid increase in nodes is the time it takes to synch the blockchain? Could epxlain the sudden surge in nodes, all syncing for a week to come online around the same time?

I don't think you need to be synced before you are visible on https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/nodes/In fact, many BIP101 nodes are syncing, suggesting that they are new ones: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2Fbx98uGB.png&t=665&c=nax5iPC-2yyVRg)

I don't think you need to be synced before you are visible on https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/nodes/In fact, many BIP101 nodes are syncing, suggesting that they are new ones: Do you think it is possible that someone is simply setting up tons of Bitcoin XT nodes just to make it seem like there is more support for it?

Someone has created a client which is totally identical to BitcoinXX but actually not supporting BIP101 and will mine blocks with version 0x20000007. This is my response. getnodes is never reliable as people can always use a botnet to run whatever clients they want. All you are doing is to make XX 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 XX, but don't you believe they will sabotage XX with their real names?
Nice try and try harder.

Please note that there are attempts to contaminate the data by spoofing clients. However, the growth looks natural to me: faster at the first 2 days, and now become slower.
