Well, it is becoming weird to the point of suspicious.

So, you find out some BT adresses and stop right at the point where everything should start.

It is just beyond my understanding.

So you get some suspicious BT addres around. And your curiosity just disappeared away. You for some reason don't want to know where it comes from.

Well, it is common knowledge that first 3 bytes (24 bits) of BT address is so-called OUI (Organizationally Unique Identifier). You could easily determine manufacturer of BT device using official OUI list here - https://standards-oui.ieee.org/ Just search for first 3 bytes in BT address in that list and you will find a vendor who made a device or at minimum BT chip in it.

I never saw this first, simple, obvious and inevitable step from any who talk about "misterious BT addresses" and wonder about them.

Why?

Are you guys really want to know what they are, or it is just some stupid joke?

And finding vendor is only beginning. You could easily find out much more information about BT device around, up to its exact purpose and abilities. And even get access to it.
