§ oc · globe

the whole bitcoin network, in one living world.

Every reachable node, every block, the lightning graph, the hashrate — drawn live from bitcoin's own public state. No account, no wallet, nothing to buy.

loading the globe…

drag to orbit, scroll to zoom. each point is a country, sized by the bitcoin nodes running there; the numbers above are the network right now. no account · no custody · read-only · public data.

§ four scenes, one world

not four pages. one continuous world you orbit.

Each scene is a different read of the same live network. You do not navigate between them so much as move through them — the camera flies, the layers cross-fade, nothing reloads.

globe · nodes

Every reachable full node, geolocated on a slowly turning earth, with peer links arcing over the sphere.source · bitnodes

blocks & mempool

Blocks land as they are found. The mempool is a live particle field, coloured by fee rate — calm plum through to hot ember.source · mempool.space

lightning

The public channel graph, weighted by capacity — the second layer drawn over the first.source · mempool.space

mining & hashrate

Where the hashrate lives. Every new block fires a pulse at the pool that found it.source · mempool.space

§ watch the network

the network, made visible. nodes, blocks, channels, hashrate.

Everything here is a read over bitcoin's own public state — no compute of ours, no account, nothing to buy. Anyone can reproduce it: run the open-source node crawler, or self-host mempool over your own bitcoin core node, and you get the same picture.
