Title: [2014-1-5] Pirate Bay to use bitcoin authencation in p2p publishing application Post by: spndr7 on January 07, 2014, 02:13:02 AM [TorrentFreak]- How The Pirate Bay Plans to Beat Censorship For Good (http://torrentfreak.com/how-the-pirate-bay-plans-to-beat-censorship-for-good-140105/)
Quote Since the site data comes from other peers, there is no central IP-address that can be blocked by Internet providers. Site owners will still offer webseeds to speed up loading, but sites are fully accessible when these are blocked. Another important change is that the new software will not use standard domain names. Instead, it will use its own fake DNS system that will link the site’s name to a unique and verified public key. For example, within the application bt://mysite.p2p/ will load 929548249111abadfjab29347282374.p2p. “Site owners will be able to register their own names, which will serve as an alias for the curve25519 pub-key that will identify the site,” the Pirate Bay insider notes. “The “domain” registrations will be Bitcoin authenticated, on a first come first served basis. After a year the name will expire unless it’s re-verified.” Title: Re: [2014-1-5] Pirate Bay to use bitcoin authencation in p2p publishing application Post by: bryant.coleman on January 08, 2014, 11:48:52 AM They should have done this ages ago. Why did it took them so much time to realize the benefits of BTC?
