Live network
The BCH2 network, right now
Every machine we can see speaking the Bitcoin Cash II protocol — the listening nodes that anyone can reach, and the much larger population running quietly at home behind a router. Rebuilt every hour.

Where the network lives

Most node maps count only machines that accept incoming connections, because that is all a crawler can find. Ours also counts the people who connect to our nodes and stratum satellites from behind a router — usually the large majority of a network, and invisible from outside.
On privacy. A listening node announces itself to the whole network, so hovering one here shows its address — the same thing Bitnodes and similar maps publish. Someone running a node at home announces nothing, so they are counted but never identified: no address, no city, no network.
Run one
A node of your own verifies every rule for itself and asks nobody’s permission. It will show up here as a dot — in your area if you are behind a router, or with its address if you forward port 8339 and start accepting connections.
