I have no idea if this is the right place to ask this question, I'm very sorry if it isn't
I have here data containing an IP address that starts with 253.45.xxx.xxx But I've looked up everywhere and I'm being told that there is no way an IP address can start with 253 (and something along the lines of 240-255.xx.xxx.xxx being reserved)
Could this be a real, valid IP address if no IP locators can find it? I don't care about what it reveals about it, I just cares that it leads somewhere or that even if it says "private" that it's still a valid IP address.
