Re: #2, the 50% figure is the public capacity of non-Tor nodes rather than the absolute number… but the public capacity numbers on Mempool seem to be off.

Looks like there are only 79 Google Cloud nodes and 557 AWS ones.

this looks very well done. but it also gives the millions of people who visit the site an introduction of the lightning network. i feel like many people who use Bitcoin might not be checking LN out proper.

The hosting part is a surprise addition, very interesting. Is each dot on the map a cluster of nodes? Looks highly concentrated in the US

Observations/Questions:

  • How are there more LN nodes (2780) in the US than "Reachable" BTC nodes in the US (2072) ? Source
  • Where is El Salvador?
  • What's going on in France? Ratio of LN Nodes to ETH nodes is really high (6.9x) vs avg around 2x. Source
  • Go Canada! Per-capita, they are winning!

This is really impressive, and the visuals are great.

I'm curious about the self hosted part (at least for LN purposes) ... getting things like the ISP (Amazon, Google, etc) requires some sort of external IP address lookup service.

This data is not available on a new Lightning Node or a part of the network gossip - a third party would be needed to retrieve this data historically or on an ongoing basis.

Has anyone tried this on a local machine, docker instance, etc? Is the service making a local call from the node to some sort of IP lookup service?

reply

Does anyone know why the capacity numbers listed next to each ISP total to more than the entire public capacity on Lightning?

These numbers exclude Tor, so the capacity totals should be much smaller than 4,600 BTC.

It usually takes couple weeks for next version of Umbrel to include this.
