RUNPOD ANALYSIS
  RunPod has NO ASN (zero BGP records on bgp.tools)
  RunPod does NOT own any IP address space
  RunPod is a marketplace/platform, not an ISP
  Community Cloud pods expose the CONTRIBUTOR's real public IP
  RunPod docs confirm: "Public IP may change on Community Cloud
    if Pod migrates" — meaning it's the host's IP, not RunPod's

VERDICT
  213.173.102.150 is NOT a RunPod-assigned IP.
  It belongs to EVOBITS (Romanian hosting company).
  Someone at EVOBITS (or a customer of EVOBITS) is contributing
  their RTX 2000 Ada GPU to RunPod's Community Cloud marketplace.
  RunPod mapped port 33880 → 22 (SSH) on this machine for you.
  The machine itself is likely a VM or bare-metal server inside
  EVOBITS' Timișoara datacenter.

In short: RunPod gave you a pod ID and a proxy address, but the underlying IP is the contributor’s own — a Romanian hosting company called EVOBITS with real datacenters. The contributor is renting out their GPU through RunPod’s peer-to-peer marketplace. When the pod is active, RunPod maps port 33880 to the machine’s SSH port 22. When the pod is paused/stopped, that mapping disappears (connection refused), but the machine itself might still be running (port 22 and 10000 are still open right now — someone else’s server).
