user24926: When running getpeerinfo, most nodes show a standard addr like this:
95.121.82.153:8333

But the first inbound connection has a differently formatted addr like this:
[2a01:4f8:212:3b1f::2]:32220

What does this mean?

user24974: That's an IPv6 address.  Basically, it's the latest version for formatting/assigning IP addresses.  At some point, we should all be seeing a lot of those...but they've been saying that for years.
