it seems to be a pretty good idea though i really doubt that anyone will pay good amount of bitcoins just for seeding though its just my opinion
Yeah, I don't see how someone would pay someone else for a "rare" file.
Legally speaking, this wouldn't be file sharing anymore and it would give a better grip to copyright holders for law suits, assuming you share copyrighted content.
I think the reason this has not launched is legality of files being shared. Sadly a lot of the top torrents are stolen/illegal/etc. Yes there are some legit uses of it but illegal files kinda have a huge hold over it.
I don't see this launching I think they made it, but they must be having trouble at the legal part. If they receive money from others sharing movies/games that were not authorized they would be in trouble aswell most likely.
i dont think that because the Dev is just making software. what the users share is the problem of the users.
the software will be released in the next months.
