I can't seem to get my server verified. I registered with Does the bitcoin address have to be the one in the bitcoin node, or can it be any bitcoin address? Does the url= have to be a web service running on our node (port 80), or is it just the URL of your node (reachable with 8333)? Thanks

The btc address has match the static public web page containing the same Bitcoin address. The url for that webpage must be the same IP address as the bitcoin node. Miners have nothing to do with this.

I would like to join, but my node is running Tor-only, so I need to be able to register the Tor onion address of the hidden service (which is not strongly intended to be hidden anyway).

great idea, it will helps people who have nodes. Though it's not user friendly enough.

Is the node registry bound to the IP address, so the service can only be used by nodes with static IP address, but not by nodes with dynamic IP address from provider (home server) ?

Correct, the address must not change in order to be eligable. Well either that or reregister every time the IP changes. The later will probably result in a horrible rating (uptime etc.) and thus keep the node from beeing considered.

Hey "disclosure" a.k.a. Addy Yeow!
Could you please add deregistration to your site? Or maybe some form of automatic decay, so that nodes inaccessible for over a month get dropped from your scanner?
I rather thoughtlessly registered several of my test nodes and I wanted to move them to a better, more permanent addresses. It was easy to press "ADD" before thinking it through. Some sort of verification similar to your incentive registration should be a good and safe deregistration.
Thanks.
Edit: Fixed spelling of the first name.

This is very interesting. What happens after December 31, 2015? Will this program expire and that's it? How does one activate their node? Where do you run these commands? https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/api/#node-bitcoin-address

He's paying out the rewards with his own funds. What would you reasonably expect? BTW, one of my nodes got about 0.039 BTC. It was a pleasant surprise. At least I can say that I got my scrap BTC without taking part in a signature campaign.

Done. Node will now be removed automatically from the site if it is down for more than a week.

Thank you very much, my friend. It is a great relief to my eyes when the search of your site no longer shows the record of my stupidity when I was testing my IPv6 network overlay. Hopefully it also lowered the load on your scanner.

I think their API fails when you try to add an onion node.
Bummer... It would be nice to know how many nodes there are on each of the for networks
IPV4=? IPV6=? ONION=?
Anyone know the bitnodes API dev to submit a feature request?

I wish I could figure out how to register the node I am running on my spare Windows desktop. I have port 8333 forwarding to the Qt wallet and it shows as being reachable on Bitnodes' site.

It's certainly not user-friendly to get your node verified. I have no idea how you would do it on Windows, but maybe you can use a linux device from the same IP?

Thanks for the link, I wish you could just register automatically from their webpage when you "Check Node". That's not secure enough, you need to be able to do an api call from the ip address that the node is run from. I was in your shoes months ago, but two pages back you'll see that instructions were provided to me that are easy to follow for folk like me that don't use Linux (yet) or program or anything. I successfully registered my node on a windows machine and haven't had issues since. I don't leave my webserver (see link for how to set one up on your machine) running all the time for security reasons, but I redo the api call weekly to keep the btc address registered with my node. Install Cygwin and curl support to enter the command line stuff. You have a static ip address, right? If not then you cannot register your node.

I dont think I will reach a PIX over 8.0 now that I have to run the node in pruned mode... I redid the verification anyway. https://bitnodes.21.co/nodes/leaderboard/?q=213.165.91.169

I noticed that since 21.co took over bitnodes my PIX is no longer over 8.0; it had been consistently ~8.3. Did something change that I'm not aware of? You have to actively do something to run in pruned mode, right? My PIX is only 7.6 right now and no clue why.
