Torrent users will soon get rewarded in seeding files through Bitcoin Cash mainnet

in #busy6 years ago (edited)

A BitTorrent client called joystream makes it possible. Joystream is a Bittorrent application for downloading and seeding torrent files in its network. Joystream users are rewarded in seeding files.

As we all know Bittorrent is a peer-to-peer (P2P) application for sharing files in the internet. It relies on its user base for download speed. The more seeders the faster the download.

I’ve been using P2P since the late 90’s in the form of KaZaa and LimeWire. But in 2001, Bram Cohen, a former University at Buffalo student released BitTorrent.

I’ve been using BitTorrent since then because it is fast and easy to use. You can even stop and continue your download at will.

With the advent of Joystream a user will now be rewarded by merely using Joystream BitTorrent client. Joystream will be integrated into the Bitcoin Cash mainnet.

Please refer to their website for update as to when the app is going to be live.

Bitcoin is based on a P2P networking, with that premise, I am assuming that Joystream will also be a success. If you are torrent lover, then it’s the right time to get paid by seeding files.

Joystream is now available for download. Just visit http://joystream.co/ to download the app.

Thank you for very informative post. I am one of the torrent user and using Utorrent currently. I can change to this one for sure. From the website blog it seems there are going live today. Is it correct ? Do you have more information ?

Yeah, you can send me a memo anytime.

I get nostalgic with Kazaa and Limewire...and the computer shops I infected with viruses because of downloading from them. 😸
