Global Nodes

Country-level distribution of every reachable Bitcoin node. Click a country to filter, or expand to see its individual peers.

Why does geographic spread matter?

Bitcoin has no central server — its security comes from thousands of independent nodes in different countriesall agreeing on the same rules. If every node lived in one country, that country’s government could effectively shut down the network. So a wide geographic spread is a sign of a healthy, censorship-resistant network.

The flag + percentage table below tells you where the world’s reachable nodes are concentrated right now, from your crawler’s vantage point.
