BTC supporters were elated to discover recently that the Lightning Network’s (LN) capacity had spiked by 216 percent in just one day. Some individuals suspected the Build on Bitcoin conference had sparked more LN interest. However, onlookers have found the spike was due to a single node created by the owner of Shitcoin.com. According to LN explorers, the node holds more than 49 percent of the Lightning Network’s total funds.

The node is operated by Andreas Brekken, the owner of Shitcoin.com who has detailed he plans on doing a review of the Lightning Network. Brekken’s Shitcoin.com reviews a wide variety of cryptocurrencies like IOTA, Tron, EOS, and Dash
