Having read a few comments in a thread here on r/btc earlier today (It looks like LN is working fine?) I had a quick look at 1ML.com to see how things were shaking out with LN these days.
Some of the numbers on their Largest Nodes list jumped out at me:
Top 10 nodes are responsible for:
- 61.55% of total BTC capacity - 70.48 BTC out of 114.53 BTC total
- 40.46% of total open channels - 2733 out of 6754 total
Top 20 of nodes are responsible for:
- 82.67% of total BTC capacity - 94.13 BTC out of 114.53 BTC total
- 60.48% of total open channels - 4085 out of 6754 total
Note: 1ML.com has some discrepancies, e.g. their total capacity on the top 50 list adds up to 111.5%, but these were the best statistics I could find
During the past year, I had hoped LN would have evolved into becoming larger and more decentralized, but it still seems to be at an early stage unfortunately.
