If it’s a single binary why is there an installer, and why does it need to be curl-piped to sh? Looking at the installer script, why does it create directories in the root dir, instead of /opt or /usr/local? Also, I couldn’t find the install script in the linked repo.

the script downloads the latest release. it's still one binary you can deploy yourself or compile with `go build`. the script is really there to automate some steps. next release a new tool `spore-drive` will allow to deploy all your nodes running one command.

for the `/tb` folder, I see your point, i would love to discuss it further if you can open an issue on github.
