1. i don't know why this picture is like what you posted but what i see is very different!
in fact recently there was a big drop in number of bitcoin unlimited nodes. and even if there was a rise, that doesn't mean there will be FUD about bitcoin!! maybe someone was trying to do a Sybil attack on BCH!
https://coin.dance/nodes/unlimited2. why use a twitter link of some random dude when you can see the mempool yourself
https://jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#0,1wthis sudden increase what thanks to a couple of empty blocks + a lot of consolidation which means the full blocks only had <1000 transactions inside which some having as low as 200 tx
and it is over now!
3. i don't see any unusual hashrate change!
1. Sorry, you're right. I got the image out of context. The original tweet was from here,
https://twitter.com/lopp/status/965261773677912065Then another person tweeted that image in the OP as a joke.
But the whole point of the post is still the same. We know most of the Bitcoin Cash nodes are located in Alibaba Cloud China, and maybe controlled by Jihan Wu or Roger Ver.
2. This is true. But during that time who can blame them for being paranoid of another mempool flood coming.
3. But we know Bitmain and other miners are already moving their miners from China to another location. They will be back.
