AI 中文总结
EternalSeedBox利用Bitcoin可编程货币和VPS市场，实现无需人工干预的自复制种子盒网络，验证了经济参数驱动的节点自主续租、繁殖与退役机制。
AI 中文摘要
集中式内容分发使得可用性依赖于单一运营商的存续和服务意愿。EternalSeedBox用继承的经济参数取代了运营商和网络：每个节点都是一个通过BitTorrent播种媒体的VPS，持有一个Bitcoin钱包，并每十二小时自主决定是否续租、生成子节点，或在到期前将资金转移给更健康的对等节点。一个创世节点播种整个舰队，此后每个节点都自主配置、资助和退役。我们通过运行未修改的节点代码，针对Bitcoin支付网络和SporeStack VPS市场的高保真副本验证了该设计。一笔10,000欧元的整笔资金在资本于第153天耗尽前将舰队增长至33个节点。在模拟收入下，舰队在510天内维持40至80个活跃节点，记录了268次出生和190次死亡。引入了一种可遗传的谨慎特征以在代际间产生差异：低谨慎血统在高收入阶段繁殖更快，而高谨慎血统在收入暂停期间预期的生存优势并未出现，使得选择偏向低谨慎节点。舰队能容忍高节点更替率，因为繁殖依赖于任何持有盈余的节点，而非任何单个节点的存活。EternalSeedBox表明，只要收入超过每节点租金，内容分发网络就能在创世后无需人工操作员的情况下租赁、支付和补充自身硬件。
英文摘要
Centralized content distribution makes availability depend on a single operator's survival and willingness to serve. EternalSeedBox replaces the operator and network with inherited economic parameters: each node is a VPS that seeds media over BitTorrent, holds a Bitcoin wallet, and autonomously decides every twelve hours whether to renew its lease, spawn a child, or sweep its funds to a healthier peer before expiring. A single genesis node seeds the fleet, and every node thereafter is provisioned, funded, and retired autonomously. We validate the design against faithful replicas of both the Bitcoin payment network and the SporeStack VPS marketplace by running the unmodified node code. A lump sum of EUR 10,000 grew the fleet to 33 nodes before capital exhausted at day 153. With simulated income, the fleet held 40--80 live nodes across 510 days, recording 268 births and 190 deaths. A heritable caution trait was introduced to diverge across generations: low-caution lineages reproduced faster during high-income phases, while the survival advantage expected of high-caution lineages during income pauses did not appear, leaving selection in favor of low-caution nodes. The fleet tolerates high node turnover because reproduction depends on any node holding a surplus, not any single node surviving. EternalSeedBox shows that a content distribution network can lease, pay for, and replenish its own hardware without a human operator after genesis, provided income exceeds per-node rent.
