Monero Ban List

A banlist for Monero nodes.

These nodes were found displaying behaviour that the normal Monero nodes would not do.

The total count of IP addresses hosting nodes showing this behaviour is currently over 1900.

False positives are not possible, some of these IP ranges are the same as LinkingLions: https://b10c.me/observations/06-linkinglion/
The IPs from LinkingLion were not copied, they were found displaying this weird behaviour.

Usage

To use download ban_list.txt and start monerod with --ban-list /path/to/ban_list.txt or add ban-list=/path/to/ban_list.txt to your bitmonero.conf file.

Signatures

To verify the signatures get our GPG keys from these locations:

Rucknium https://rucknium.me/pgp.txt

Then import the keys and verify the signatures:

gpg --verify ./sigs/boog900.sig ban_list.txt

You should now see:

Now repeat with as many Person's signatures as you please.
