But one that keeps changing IP will get very little, if any, traffic, based on how bridge information is distributed.

it makes sense, so i can opt for static ip with isp (it comes at rxtra cost, i think) do i have to ask anything more about static ip?

Cheers.

if more than one bridge can be configured per one isp connection, how do i configure?

It's *best* to have a static IP for bridges as well as relays of course. even more important for a bridge is to have a static IP address because it gets into clients torrc file and remains there, to be used as an entry point in the Tor network - if something changes (like the IP address), it requires manual action from that client. At least for relays the changed IP address is fetched from the consensus and does not require manual effort from the clients.

Anyway, even if you have a dynamic address you can still run a bridge but it shouldn't change too often. If it changes every day, I don't think it will make an useful bridge.

Better run a relay. or get a static IP address for a bridge.

If it only changes every few weeks, you can work with DynDNS.

If you are only online for a few hours or your dyn IP keeps changing, check out Tor snowflake. https://support.torproject.org/censorship/what-is-snowflake/ https://snowflake.torproject.org/

Setup 2 Tor instances. On Debian systems see tor-instances. Only 2 instances are allowed per IPv4 or IPv6/64 subnet.

How expensive is a static IP at your ISP (+24h electricity)? Maybe a KVM costs the same. A $ 3.50 per month KVM is enough for a bridge.

i am from india. few of my collegeaus are paying 1000 rupees (almost 15 dollars). i almost finalised small server(512 gb ram). probably i should look for vms.
