The Largest Minecraft World Download: 15 TB of 2b2t History Archived

The largest available Minecraft world, totalling 15 TB

I led a team to archive the largest available Minecraft world, capturing 15 TB of data from the anarchy server 2b2t. Using 28 bot accounts over a year, we downloaded a 1 million block squared area of the Overworld, plus sections of the Nether and End. This massive public dataset preserves the server's chaotic history before it faces increasing censorship and rule changes, ensuring this unique digital landscape remains accessible forever.

"Given how interesting this premise is, the server constantly sees hundreds of players online, and many more hundreds of players sitting in a queue, with the option to pay $20 monthly to skip that queue instantly."
