Ah! I have never heard of such a coin anywhere. Once you mentioned about it, I searched for them.  Roll Eyes

I actually need nodes of a POS Coin named BOSON and can't find any explorer online, just none.
There are some of the nodes mentioned in the announcement thread of BOSON  Grin (The name looks quite funny man.) But you have tried all the possible nodes and just got 2 connections. I doubt that is the coin dead without devs.

The getaddr sends a request to a node asking for more active nodes. I have just studied about getaddr() will help us to request for more nodes. But I haven't used as I don't require one, hence I can't help you out with this issue.  Huh

If you need the list of nodes for any given coin, you can visit the block explorers of the particular coin. Block explorers help us to get basic details on the node lists, transactions, balance in a particular address. You can use cryptoid for getting the list of nodes. For example Dash, a popular POS coin has nodes such as this. Here you can check for the node count, shares present with each node and the wallet balances etc. Here is an announcement in bitcointalk made for cryptoid.

Similarly, you can get the list of nodes by requesting the peers you have connected with by using the getaddr() function. If the peers help you out in listing more peers, you can request the peers of peers for more nodes for you to connect with. Here is a list of nodes for Dash to get added in addnode function.

How would I programatically list the Nodes of the Blockchain of any POS-Cryptocurrency?
