Why would you want to use blockchains for this? DHT has been used for distributed c&c for ages and is generally a much lighter option.

But no, P2P C&C is still not really typical. In practice, there's mostly not that much need for it. Also, FWIW, for practically all use-cases P2P C&C discovery is a vastly better option.
