BCSEEK exists to publish warnings, dispatches, operator notes, and research around
the practical burden of running Bitcoin infrastructure.
The first focus is BTC Monolith: the growing weight of Bitcoin Core initial sync,
storage, bandwidth, heat, validation burden, and the risk that local operators
quietly disappear.
First campaign
The first BCSEEK campaign supports the BTC Core Exam — COSIGO Dev Lab project
hosted at bcnode.io.
That project studies verified Bitcoin Core snapshot bootstrap, AssumeUTXO,
pruning, mirror verification, bad-file rejection, operator burden, and public
proof-of-concept reporting.
Support needed
Serious work requires serious support: hardware, storage, bandwidth, mirrors,
independent operators, testing, documentation, security review, and human time.
This is not an investment offering, token sale, or profit promise. It is a
public-interest infrastructure research effort.
Contributor call
BCSEEK is seeking reputable article writers, Bitcoin node operators, technical reviewers,
and infrastructure researchers to publish dispatches about BTC Monolith, Bitcoin Core
bootstrap burden, ordinary node survival, AssumeUTXO, UTXO snapshots, storage, bandwidth,
hardware inflation, and decentralization risk.
