<p>Also, from the introduction:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>During startup, Bisq is required to send >4MB of data to seednodes in order to get its initial data.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>I'm unfamiliar with this problem, and reading this doesn't help me understand what's really going on. Why would a Bisq node need to <em>send</em> so much data to its seednode(s)? I could understand that it might need to receive quite a bit of data, but I'm clearly missing something. I read through the rest of the description a couple times and I don't think this is ever made clear. ELI5, please :)</p>
