You don't need to ping anyone to crawl the DHT. You can passively wait and you'll get DHT queries in the form of "I'm looking for people seeding XYZ. Do you have a list?". You can just save those somewhere and you'll accumulate a list of active and new torrents.
Writing a DHT crawler is super fun, I suggest everyone to get a cheap VM and write/run one.
