Just put the website behind an x402 gate [0] (yes it uses stablecoins) requiring payment if a bot wants to access the content which acts like a Captcha and detect them if they are on direct data center IP or are using residential proxies.

Stablecoins have a great use-case and you get paid for bots to access the site with the humans living in peace without the site getting botted.

Job done.

Please write a function that returns true when the user is using a residential proxy and false when it is a normal user on a residential IP address.
