 So, this could be an error with the methodology?

 It has followers and event history, it’s not just a throwaway npub created for spamming.

 Thanks for the link!

I assume this is a constantly changing list? Could that explain some of the dips? Is the graph retroactively adjusted whenever a nip05 provider is blacklisted? https://image.nostr.build/6f7c4d94246a3d79d31af6fe9cf623e43c9498d2bb4256bf1908cc31d5498928.jpg

 You’ll have to ask @brugeman about anything more specific.

 Trusted is when you have non-zero trust rank. Usually any interaction from another trusted user is enough. The above quote is no longer accurate, an even then it was about seed nodes that had trust at the start of the calculation.
