 Anybody know why new users, posts, and a bunch of other Nostr usage stats spiked April 18th like 5x? Did something happen in the news, or on other social media to drive new traffic, or are the bots getting better and aren’t being filtered out of the stats as inauthentic users?

 The number of trusted accounts didn't spike. These are bots most likely
