Why Blockchain Data Scraping Needs Distributed Proxy IPs?
When you are crawling blockchain public ledger data, you often encounter situations where the frequency of requests is limited and IPs are blocked. Blockchain nodes usually identify and block IPs with high-frequency access in order to prevent malicious crawlers. Traditional single-IP or small-scale proxy pools are easily flagged by the system, and theDistributed Proxy IP PoolBy rotating requests through real device IPs in different regions and network environments, it can effectively bypass anti-crawl rules.
How can residential IP pools break the anti-crawl mechanism?
Common server room IPs in the market are easily recognized as proxies, and ipipgo provides the90 million+ family home IPsFrom a real user network environment, each IP is geo-tagged with the home broadband. When the crawler accesses through such IPs, the system will determine that it is normal user behavior. For example, when obtaining Ethernet transaction records, alternating requests with residential IPs from different regions such as the United States, Singapore, Germany, etc., the server will consider it as normal access by users from multiple regions.
Demonstration of Dynamic IP Rotation Strategy in Action
Take Python crawler as an example, combined with ipipgo's API interface to realize intelligent IP switching:
import requests
from itertools import cycle
proxy_pool = cycle(ipipgo.get_proxy_list(country='multi', protocol='https'))
headers = {'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0'}
def fetch_block_data(url):
proxy = next(proxy_pool)
try: response = requests.get(url)
response = requests.get(url, proxies={"https": proxy}, headers=headers, timeout=10)
return response.json()
except.
print(f "IP {proxy} failed, automatically switching to next")
return fetch_block_data(url)
pass (a bill or inspection etc)Cyclic calls to residential IPs in different countriesIf you set a reasonable request interval (3-5 seconds is recommended), you can get the data on the chain stably without being banned.
The special value of static IP in specific scenarios
When there is a need to continuously listen to a blockchain address, ipipgo'sLong-lasting static residential IPIt can maintain session continuity. For example, when monitoring large-value bitcoin transfers, use a static IP to establish a long connection, and work with the heartbeat mechanism to maintain the connection state and avoid frequent reconnections that trigger security alerts. Be careful to choose a static IP that supports the SOCKS5 protocol to ensure encrypted data transmission.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why are I still recognized with a proxy IP?
A: Data center IP may be used, we suggest to change to ipipgo's residential IP and check whether the request header contains real browser fingerprint.
Q: How many IPs need to be called at the same time to be safe?
A: Dynamically adjusted according to the amount of tasks, ordinary monitoring 10-20 / hour, high-frequency capture recommended 200 + IP pool rotation, ipipgo support on-demand real-time expansion.
Q: What should I look for in a cross-country data crawl?
A: Select local residential IPs in the target region, e.g., crawl Japanese blockchain projects to prioritize the use of Tokyo residential IPs to reduce latency and identify risks.
via ipipgo'sGlobal Residential IP Resources, developers can build truly distributed data collection systems. ItsFull Protocol SupportCharacteristics (HTTP/HTTPS/SOCKS5) can be adapted to the interface requirements of various blockchain nodes, and the dynamic IP automatic replacement mechanism ensures stable operation for 7×24 hours. It is recommended to test the IP demand of specific scenarios through a free trial before formulating a long-term plan.
