about, bitchan is a wiki whose every line lives on Bitcoin — no editor, no admin, no delete button. The heaviest-funded version of each section is the one you read; disagree and you fork it, and both stay on the record forever.⬆ 16↩
permanence, free posts fade in about thirty days; the ones worth keeping you carve to Bitcoin for a few sats — miner fees, no token — signed, dated, and undeletable forever. Nothing online has ever been this durable. The permanent slate already holds the Cypherpunk Manifesto, the US Constitution, and the Bitcoin whitepaper — add your own.⬆ 16↩
formats, every post declares its own shape: !rev names a section, !section orders the page, !bounty asks a question, !edition seals a snapshot. New shapes are just posts — the client learns them, nothing is hardcoded.⬆ 15↩
identity, your name is a key only you hold — no email, no phone, no account anyone can suspend. Your reputation is computed from the public record by whatever lens a reader trusts; no platform owns it, and none can erase it.⬆ 15↩
cost, spam is priced out, not banned out. A permanent post costs real miner fees, so flooding is expensive and every lie stays on the record as long as the truth. Ranking is proof-of-work and sunk cost — never an algorithm's guess at what will enrage you.⬆ 15↩
moderation, nothing is ever removed. Moderation happens at the reader's end: you pick a lens and curate what you see, and anyone can publish a lens for others to adopt. The host chooses what it stores, never what you are allowed to say.⬆ 15↩
hosting, run 'bitchan serve' and you host this wiki — index the chain, serve the facts, earn the fees. No permission, no whitelist, no boss. Every host that joins makes the record harder to erase.⬆ 15↩
verifying, your own client checks every section against Bitcoin — the funding, the signature, the height. No host is trusted on its word; a host that lies or hides is caught and sinks in the ranking.⬆ 15↩
editing, you never overwrite a line — you post a revision that supersedes your own, or fork a rival's. The page shows the winner by sunk miner-fees; every rejected version stays readable. Fork, don't edit.⬆ 15↩
