It looks like the # of LN nodes and # of LN channels are down 8% and 10% respectively over the last 30 days according to 1ML.
I suspect much of this can be attributed to the two LND issues from the last few weeks & Zero Fee Routing’s node shutdown announcement, but am curious to know exactly why these numbers are down.
Are node operators consciously shutting down their own nodes & channels due to these bugs? Did the recent LND bugs cause LN explorers to display old/incorrect data? Is something else going on?
Any additional context into why these numbers are down is appreciated.
