01FIRST
Full-history storage
Add dedicated high-capacity SSD storage so Bitcoin Core can leave pruning behind and maintain the index a useful explorer needs.
Unlocks: a durable full-chain foundationThe funding room
Fund the rails.
Keep the room open.
Open Ledger needs useful infrastructure before it needs a loud launch. Support goes toward a full-history node, a self-hosted explorer, and a Lightning desk built slowly enough to deserve trust.
No wallet connection. No token sale. No funds held by this site.
The build brief
Three moves.
In the right order.
Infrastructure first, public utility second, payment collection last. Each stage is independently verified before the next one opens.
02NEXT
Self-hosted Mempool
Run the explorer, address index, monitoring, and backups beside the node—without exposing wallet or administrative services.
Unlocks: our own public chain window03AFTER REVIEW
Lightning desk
Harden the payment path, complete a public safety review, and publish a separate plan for channel liquidity before accepting sats.
Unlocks: small, intentional paymentsUseful support, today
Help without
sending money.
Share the brief
Put the project in front of a thoughtful builder, hardware sponsor, educator, or security reviewer.
Sponsor infrastructure
A written hardware sponsorship path is next, with a public receipt and a named milestone before anything is accepted.
Pressure-test the idea
Good questions about privacy, custody, education, and operating cost are contributions too.
Our promise
When the payment rail opens,
the destination will be obvious.
We will publish what the money is for, where it goes, what unlocked, and what remains. Until then, the most valuable contribution is attention from the right people.
