# Bottle



> A Bitcoin Browser



![bottle](./bottle2.png)



> Did you know that you can upload files directly to the Bitcoin network, as permanent, immutable, and monetizable Bitcoin transactions?

> 

> These files can be all sorts of things like documents, images, and videos, and can be combined to make other things, like applications or interactive pages.

> 

> With files, you can publish things that reference one another through URI schemes.

> 

> And because it's on the blockchain, ownership is provable, the content is permanent, and it can be directly monetized forever.



Bottle is a browser that lets you surf the Bitcoin network for these things, and brings them all together through Bitcoin native URI schemes such as [B://](https://b.bitdb.network) or [C://](https://c.bitdb.network) (or any other protocols we add in the future).



Note that the address bar below uses a b:// address:, not HTTP or HTTPS. This HTML file is 100% hosted and served from the Bitcoin blockchain, and has nothing to do with where a "server" is located.
