Using a YouTube download bot residential IP is definitely possible, but it’s not without risks. I’ve tried it, and while it does help avoid detection, it’s not a guaranteed solution.
I’d recommend using a tool like 4K Video Downloader or Y2Mate. They’re pretty reliable, and you don’t have to mess around with bots and proxies.
Just keep in mind that YouTube is always updating their systems, so what works today might not work tomorrow.

I’ve been experimenting with a YouTube download bot residential IP for a few weeks now, and it’s been a mixed bag.
Sometimes it works great, and other times I get blocked. I’ve found that using a tool like KeepVid or SnapDownloader works better for me. They’re easier to use and don’t require messing around with bots and proxies.
If you’re gonna try it, just be careful and don’t overdo it. YouTube is pretty strict about this stuff.
