Increase Core Lotus Network Infrastructure Resiliency #37

Description

@stongo

eta: 2023Q1
description:
Increase network resiliency by further decentralizing core network infrastructure, starting with bootstrap nodes. FIL-Infra will continue to operate bootstrap nodes in three regions, but want to support the community in running more!

We'll track and publicize uptime for critical network infrastructure at https://chain.love, to improve monitoring of this core network infrastructure and increase operator accountability.

Finally, by providing Impact Evaluators and Service Level expectations for Bootstrap nodes, we will incentivize more PLN organizations to operate and monitor critical network infrastructure by leveraging the PLN builders funnel.

Impact

As of today, if FIL-Infra bootstrap nodes were to go offline due to unforeseen circumstances - outages, human error, unpaid invoices, etc - it's highly likely lotus users could not join Mainnet, after starting or restarting lotus. Peer tables are not persisted through restarts.
