This relieves the servers from carrying the entire burden and makes it possible for a server to handle unlimited requests without requiring a large bandwidth.īitTorrent consists of many clients, which are nothing but programs that implement the BitTorrent protocol. Once a user receives the entire file, that user acts as a seed (a source having the entire file available for sharing). This is done by simultaneously uploading the slices of the file received by other users who are trying to request the same file.

It allows other users, trying to download the same file to act as servers to one another. BitTorrent avoids this problem by allowing users to join a swarm of hosts, which can scatter and gather information from each other simultaneously. When a large number of users try to access a particular site, the connection is usually refused because of the network traffic and heavy load on the source computer. It allows an unlimited number of users to connect to a site simultaneously without causing the server to run out of bandwidth.īitTorrent is an open-source, peer-assisted program that was developed in Python programming language by Bram Cohen in 2001. It also serves as a storage service that allows platform users to download the stored data from service providers in exchange for a fee.The BitTorrent protocol helps to efficiently download files from the Internet. Users can also earn BTT by participating in other providers’ distributions. TRON uses a blockchain to keep track of all the transactions, but, unlike most popular digital coins, uses a Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism which means that users who verify the blockchain have to hold a stake of TRON tokens, and be voted on by others.īTT is a TRC-10 cryptographic token on the TRON blockchain and was created to improve and tokenize the entire BitTorrent content sharing platform.īTT can be bought and spent by BitTorrent users who request files (peers) or would like to increase their download speed, while providers (seeds) can receive and sell BTT in order to be compensated for seeding the files on their systems. TRON is a blockchain-based decentralized operating system for sharing content (that ranges from video files to online games) based on a cryptocurrency native to the system – TRON (TRX).


Following this idea, the BitTorrent team presented BitTorrent Token (BTT), a project that would add incentives to torrenting and solve problems such as slow download speed. According to the Tron Foundation founder Justin Sun, this was the start of Project Atlas – an initiative that would help decentralize the internet’s content using blockchain technology. In 2018 the platform was acquired for $140 million by the Tron Foundation blockchain. The communication protocol for peer-to-peer (P2P) file-sharing, which enables the distribution of data and electronic files (like music files, computer games, etc.) over the internet in a decentralized manner, is today used by more than 100 million people in more than 100 countries. The first version of the BitTorrent platform was designed by programmers Bram Cohen and David Harrison and released in 2001. Decentralized applications (DApps) powered by BTT include BitTorrent Speed, BitTorrent File System, DLive, and others in the pipeline. The Bittorrent price prediction sentiment is currently bearish, while Fear & Greed Index is showing 45 (Fear).īittorrent 's current circulating supply is 990.00B BTTOLD out of max supply of 990.00B BTTOLD.īitTorrent Token (BTT) is a utility token based on TRON blockchain (TRC-10 token) that powers features of decentralized protocols and applications. The highest BTTOLD price since the last cycle low was $ 5.495e-7 (cycle high). The lowest price since it's ATH was $ 5.073e-7 (cycle low).
