Summary
Blockinetic
hosting business infrastructure
Two netnames built by the same rule, except one has a doubled hyphen where the other has a single.
What it's used for
- A hosting network. 512 addresses across two IPv4 prefixes, the IPv6 block
2602:fbb5::/36, and 38 observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
23.133.82.0/24is netnameBLOCKINETIC-NET-23-133-82-0-1.173.243.228.0/24is netnameBLOCKINETIC--NET-173-243-228-0-1, with two hyphens after the company name.- Both are registered to the same company and follow the same construction otherwise.
- 38 upstreams carry 512 addresses.
- Six addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
Interesting
- The doubled hyphen is the sort of typing slip a template would have prevented and a registry will never correct. Anything matching netnames by pattern treats the two blocks as unrelated, which is the practical cost of building identifiers by hand.
- Thirty-eight adjacencies against two /24s is the highest ratio of paths to addresses in this stretch. Networks reach that number by peering at exchanges rather than buying transit, so the AS exists to collect connections and the address count is almost beside the point.
- The single IPv6 block dwarfs both IPv4 blocks by an amount that has no useful comparison, which is the normal asymmetry between the two families seen at its starkest.

Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-10, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

Classification and threat
Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.
Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 431 networks and 1,775 prefixes, as published 2026-10-11. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
