Yeah, IPv4 addresses use four bytes. Those four bytes are represented as four decimal numbers, separated by dots. And a byte can only represent the decimal values 0–255.
I try to avoid “this” style comments, but I genuinely don’t know how else to respond to this one. It was hilarious. I literally (by which I actually mean “literally”) laughed out loud.
Oh yeah, that’s the new hexadecimal IPV8
IPv5.
Hello, I am apparently an idiot. What is wrong with that IP address that people can tell it’s an immediate phishing scam?
IP addresses can’t have segment numbers going over 255.

I think you mean IPV0x08

IPv4 was easy to remember. IPv6 made it very hard. This implies that IPv8 has to be base64 encoded.
wait what? I feel like I am left behind in the tech. I only know about ipv4 and ipv6 😭😭😭
They’re making a joke. The numbers in the IP are way too high for v4, but the format isn’t v6, so it’s a “new range” of v8.
Where’s IPv7?
In the drawer right next to IPv5
