With the standard and used definition of what a botnet is, it's impossible to know if the miners of this/these botnet(s) were upgraded or not and are therefore on the new chain (or not). They will eventually end up upgrading anyway.
There should only have been 1 chain until block 33400. Then those who didn't upgrade would have continued mining with PoBH and those who upgraded would have gone on a new chain with PoDC.
From what I understood, the new protocol (PoDC) was supposed to kick off on block 33400 and hence should have been the splitting point between those who upgraded and those who didn't upgrade (there is no such thing as the botnet chain/non-botnet chain, etc).
That did not happen and instead there was a split between those who upgraded and those who didn't upgrade waaaaay before block 33400 for other reasons (haven't looked at the exact block but it happened at least 5 hours ago).
The block explorer is offline right now while I put it back on the chain used by people on version 1010002.
Right, I was using the Botnet chain as meaning the "other/old" chain. But PoBH chain would have made more sense.
Ok then so the 33400 block target number should be on the new/PoDC chain
