 Have bots got more sophisticated recently? To include bio details? Addresses?

 Are LN addresses a rare commodity?

Although I have to admit that this time I did not get any new phantom followers (but I'm sure two thirds of my followers are bots)

 You need: a domain
You get: infinite LN addresses

 I was wondering about that. Maybe clients aren't showing follow but follows.

But yeah I probably have about 10 real followers.

I appear to have more followers than the entirety of nostr's active users

 Would they have to be somehow verified actual, rather than hibberish ln addresses? Unique addresses? I'm just thinking how nostrband works with their stats 🤔

 There's no upside on LN address creation only on bio the real accounts are only 250k people upside of 50k only
