Dysphoria, an Internet of Things (IoT) botnet line tracked by CNCERT and XLab, has adopted blockchain-based name services and infected-device relays after a March law-enforcement operation against JackSkid infrastructure. The researchers say the design makes the botnet harder to disrupt. CNCERT, China's national computer emergency response team, and XLab, the threat-intelligence lab of Chinese firm Qi'anxin, put its population above 200,000 bots. Their telemetry logged 4,401 confirmed active devices inside China between July 14 and 20 and a single-day peak of 239,000 bots abroad. None of the counts has been independently reproduced. The researchers published no counting or de-duplication methodology, so the numbers should not be read as a precise device census. Defenders should patch exposed IoT gear, replace devices that can no longer be updated, eliminate default and weak credentials, and disable remote management and UPnP where they are not needed. The lineage runs through JackSkid, one of four IoT botnets targeted in coordinated U.S., German, and Canadian law-enforcement actions on March 19. Court documents attributed more than 90,000 DDoS commands to JackSkid alone. Within days, Nokia Deepfield and Comcast's threat lab documented the operator falling back to an Ethereum Name Service (ENS) domain, m3rnbvs5d[.]eth, for command-and-control (C2). XLab's Dysphoria timeline opens with a JackSkid sample captured on March 25, six days after the disruption, that resolves C2 through the same domain. XLab found that the burrberry[.]eth record encodes distribution-node IPv4 addresses, while 24carnforth2merseyside[.]sol supplies other infrastructure records. The DDoS sample asks a distribution node over HTTP for a current server list, and the listed endpoints are infected machines relaying traffic to the real controllers. The design keeps those controllers one step removed from the addresses exposed to bots. The XLab analysis, published July 25, tracks a fast run of builds: custom RC4 string encryption and ENS resolution at
