There is no term seed node in whitepaper.

Instead there seems to be a list of seednodes. https://github.com/steemit/steem/blob/master/doc/seednodes.txt https://github.com/steemit/steem/blob/master/contrib/steemd.run https://github.com/steemit/steem/blob/1cfdf8101ec415156b155c9ec90b0a4d439a039f/contrib/startpaassteemd.sh
