I only put a block on China. It was bots that was taking up all my nodes 24/7.  If I was able to narrow it down to a few ISPs, I would have just done that, but it was all over.

Once I put the China block in place, about 95% of the bot traffic stopped.

Bots.  For me, the biggest offenders are China Mobile, Chinanet (the
biggest!), Digital Ocean, Alibaba (China, Singapore, Malaysia),
HINET-Taiwan, CNC Group China, Korea Telecom, China Unicom, and Panchenko -
Russia.  All of those have multiple ranges blocked in my ip-silent.can
file, and just about all of them are in there for bot activity -- using a
whole lot of known IOT username and password combos to try to create more
bots.
