For a few hours I found 158 XT nodes which send "Bitcoin XT" user agent identification. Geoip shows 156 of them use IP located in Russia. Conspiracy? ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) List of nodes found so far 178.207.212.77 46.48.207.254 178.204.21.37 92.37.157.208 178.204.116.214 94.241.1.185 5.143.81.49 46.158.180.252 109.184.237.27 77.94.122.122 95.53.114.28 85.192.134.21 176.51.132.64 178.207.253.99 95.70.123.241 188.114.8.99 5.138.247.242 109.184.91.19 95.70.33.86 178.67.165.114 178.68.221.168 109.147.229.121 188.18.250.20 73.182.147.206 31.163.112.63 78.37.63.25 78.37.54.48 2.60.135.235 178.68.133.169 95.106.143.65 178.68.142.70 92.37.194.165 188.16.14.188 78.29.90.8 77.51.69.128 87.251.114.145 95.52.18.154 95.37.84.223 37.21.92.223 212.55.111.19 46.159.19.194 95.165.205.145 81.4.200.111 5.139.81.44 176.52.116.178 93.177.56.235 92.101.10.32 31.162.118.16 95.189.43.240 178.67.14.238 37.76.186.17 46.159.34.2 31.180.69.181 178.46.37.7 31.180.219.230 109.184.96.96 95.70.106.211 178.204.154.56 46.48.178.70 93.120.185.96 82.140.209.7 188.18.202.245 5.143.42.201 94.245.183.162 95.71.253.245 31.23.71.137 31.181.32.8 37.21.3.213 92.37.131.121 37.21.36.108 5.138.104.148 95.53.27.158 178.67.190.175 92.37.204.174 46.158.195.130 95.37.177.142 92.37.173.6 178.207.75.108 93.92.182.26 31.23.175.53 213.129.51.145 109.187.248.91 5.139.146.38 89.109.10.241 95.37.186.63 178.44.204.95 109.184.156.211 46.158.82.72 178.129.217.51 95.70.96.99 78.36.75.57 5.138.13.94 85.173.94.70 92.37.178.117 31.181.255.235 31.23.40.6 92.37.155.69 178.64.132.207 178.65.109.38 95.188.224.224 178.65.133.185 86.102.161.110 176.100.71.189 31.181.127.200 46.48.156.116 95.37.59.128 95.55.234.36 178.65.190.83 86.102.23.117 95.72.178.140 95.52.163.203 178.44.216.148 31.181.9.247 95.54.209.136 213.129.42.244 95.84.41.233 31.23.69.31 195.78.126.113 178.46.121.141 109.127.174.49 95.37.142.84 92.127.82.46 37.23.114.199 95.55.247.49 37.76.160.71 109.184.84.174 92.101.103.218 95.152.58.92 46.158.133.40 95.188.215.250 5.143.41.240 176.51.218.19 92.49.177.97 95.110.78.36 31.180.212.39 95.84.13.60 5.139.139.154 93.124.118.209 188.17.228.32 178.205.238.115 178.44.210.245 95.71.203.201 188.120.62.217

Interesting. Thx for the update.
A long long long time ago I predicted the global geopolitical strategy would play a role in the security of Bitcoin. Now we see them dirty Chinese giving the XT guys (all two of them) a serious case of heartburn. Nothing brings my heart more joy.

So russians attacks russians?
Just checked. My node is not XT and not under any kind of attack.
I just check incoming connections on port 8333 for version string "Bitcoin XT". Whoever sends this version string to my bitcoin node goes to list.

I know they have relaxed their position on it publicly, but don't belive that they would want to give very much power to something they can't control. UNLESS it slowly becomes more centralized. Man the rabbit hole could go deep on this 1.
I'm not going to put much more thought into it and chalk it up to Putin and Hearn wrestle bears together.

DDoS usually goes from infected computers which have no significant geo preference. This case is outstanding. I can't figure out why they all have Russian IP.
And why Russian botnet motherhost attacks Russian XT nodes. What the fuck is going on?

Here is my theory honestly , we all know how russians are good at Cracking and hacking and that kind of stuff , so it's probably just some cracked VPS they sold them in some hacking forum in bulk for cheap price and voilà (or they are using them on bitcoin themselfs)

This is a country that tries to restrict outflow of their cash to ghe foreign countries. Lot of rich Russians that wish to get their money out of Russia so they can buy everything in South of France, London, etc. So Bitcoin works for them in case, or if the government would really soften it's stance towards the Bitcoin.

why Russian botnet motherhost attacks Russian XT nodes. What the fuck is going on?
Two trolls named gavin@tla.mit.edu and hearn@signint.google.mil tried to take over Bitcoin with their hostile fork. They had zero effect on the network, but pissed a lot of people off with their social engineering attack ('XT: BECAUSE BLOCKSTREAM IS HITLER'). Then some smart-ass released a spoof version of XT called NotXT. Now, half of the world's Bitcoiners hate XT so much they are setting up fake nodes to trick it into forking before it has sufficient strength, while the other half hate XT so much they are attacking the first half's fake nodes. Russia is just where we all go when this sort of crazy thing happens. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Of course, there is also the possibility that they are trying to keep the dispute going since it keeps the price low ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) I bet none of you thought of that huh? ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

No, it is the other way round. In Russia XT nodes discover you. I run my node elsewhere and I do not see those IPs you listed trying to connect to me.
