Hi folk.

Notice: cryptozoidberg on boolberry.herokuapp.com is a fake.

Any way to crypto-verify who is telling the truth here?

It's possible (albeit less likely) the CZ account here is hacked and the herokuapp one is real. Huh

I steel have access to BBR git repo, in next days i'll setup new seed nodes and commit it with new checkpoints, so you'll see it.

Sounds good, I'll add those to the seed node implementation that I'm working on when you post the IP addresses.

Have you seen how Monero does it? instead of hardcoded seed node IP addresses, they have 5 different domain names in different countries, each with 5 seed nodes in the A NAME entry on the DNS network, and the code then appends the Monero port number to them. The primary benefit is that the A NAME entries can be updated and propagated amongst DNS, when a server goes down, so people don't have to download a new version of the software.

There are a lot of redundancies this way, and Monero then has else statements if no seed nodes are found in the domain name entries

Also, there's some speculation that the checkpoint implementation needs tweaking. We are still testing it but it seems that your older client has problems with my client having more checkpoints in them, during initial syncing. So we can make that compatible, since checkpoint updates will always be a periodic thing, and my client has the same code to rely on the existence of checkpoints.
