Why does my public IP show a Bitcoin Node is running when it is set up over Tor?

Why does my public IP show a Bitcoin Node is running when it is set up over Tor?

I've set up my node to run exclusively over TOR. But when I check https://bitnodes.earn.com/ and a few other sites with my public IP to check if a bitcoin node is accepting incoming connections, it comes back that it is.

How do I hide my public IP from showing that a full node is running ?

My bitcoin.conf settings are as follows:

  • txindex=1
  • server=1
  • rpcport=8332
  • listen=1
  • proxy=127.0.0.1:9050
  • bind = 127.0.0.1
  • onlynet=onion
