Node software

Bitcoin Core runs on 97% of reachable nodes in Germany and Bitcoin Knots on 2%, less than the 6% Knots share among all nodes on the map. The most common versions are Bitcoin Core 31.1 (22%), Bitcoin Core 32.1 (14%), Bitcoin Core 31.0 (10%).

How nodes connect

19% of the reachable nodes in Germany are reached over IPv6 and 81% over IPv4. Across all nodes on the map the IPv6 share is 11%.

About these numbers

Node counts are reachable Bitcoin nodes (nodes that accept incoming connections) seen by the BTC Nodes crawler (btcnodes.io, an independent rebuild of Bitnodes) and placed by IP address with DB-IP Lite, so places are approximate. They are not the number of Bitcoin users. Nodes that run only over Tor, I2P or CJDNS have no location and are not counted for any country. ATMs are machines mapped by volunteers in OpenStreetMap. No node address is published.
