Paste a node address or IP. We check it against this list and the MRL ban list in your browser — nothing is sent anywhere.
Settings → Network → Node → choose “Custom” and paste the address. Feather can route everything over Tor (Settings → Network → Proxy).
Settings → Connection and sync → Manage nodes → add the node. For .onion nodes turn on Cake's built-in Tor first.
GUI: Settings → Node → Remote node → add the address. CLI over Tor: monero-wallet-cli --proxy 127.0.0.1:9050 --daemon-address ADDRESS:PORT
Researchers found large groups of “spy nodes” that log which IP address first broadcasts each transaction. The Monero Research Lab publishes a list of their IP ranges; nodes that load it (--ban-list) refuse to talk to them. Tor and I2P nodes hide their IP, so the ban-list status of most onion nodes can't be checked from outside — they show as “unknown”, which is normal.
