BitTorrent has been committed to the mission of decentralization since its inception. As a representative of peer-to-peer transfer protocols, it breaks the reliance on traditional centralized servers, allowing each participant to be both a consumer and provider of data. This logic becomes even more meaningful in the Web3 era—no need to trust intermediaries, as the network itself is the infrastructure. This is precisely why BitTorrent's decentralized DNA is naturally compatible with the blockchain ecosystem, and also the fundamental reason why it has gained attention in the crypto community.

This BT setup is truly amazing; it should have been played this way a long time ago.

The BT protocol has long been overdue for popularity. It's a bit late that Web3 is only now paying attention to it.

I've already said that BT is the true core spirit of Web3, much more reliable than those flashy projects.

hold up, lemme audit this narrative first... "decentralized DNA"? nah, seen this pitch before. bittorrent's p2p mechanics are solid technically speaking, but let's not pretend the network itself prevents bad actors from seeding malware. that's a red flag right there. just sayin, DYOR on which nodes you're actually trusting.

I've always said that BT is the true original decentralized technology, much more reliable than a bunch of new projects.

The BT protocol has long been overdue for popularity, and this time someone finally connected it with Web3.

bittorrent's logic has indeed been understood for a long time, but back then there was no blockchain to verify identities, making it easy to abuse. Now that on-chain identities are available, it's a different story.
