Server blocking refers to the act of preventing access to a server or its services, often by network administrators or regulatory bodies. In the context of digital assets, this could involve governments restricting access to cryptocurrency exchanges or blockchain nodes within their jurisdiction. It can also refer to network-level measures taken by service providers to mitigate denial-of-service attacks or enforce content policies. Such actions can significantly impact user access and the decentralization of digital services.
