2. In the main exit of the router, block the access to BTC seed node addressing. (See appendix 2 list of DNS seed addresses)
3. In the GFW, with DPI identification, the BTC network would be forced to abandon the sync of BTC (Block) exchange.
The government will take the following action:

4. Monitor highly on the BTC network's communication via bridge connection, TOR and VPN etc. Inform the most frequent request.

does this mean that the nodes can't connect? and does this mean that they can't mine in the future without some tricks (TOR, VPN)?
or do they all need to connect to the satellites?
