XT is digging itself a fake grave.
Are you trolling or are you an idiot?
This fake nodes are from people, who are against XT, since they want to proof, that node count doesn't matter, although, I don't remember anybody well-known in the community ever claiming that node-count matters.
It can happen in three ways.
1. Anti-XT manipulating it to prove node count does not matter.
2. Pro-XT manipulating it to make us think number of XT nodes are greater.
3. Anti-Bitcoinist manipulating it to make us think either of the above is happening.
There is a reddit-post, that showed, how somebody manipulated it. That was definitely number 1.
Sure, there might be other groups doing the same thing, with a different agenda, but I seriously don't see any point in that.
People have to focus on more relevant indicators, which side is going to win.
