You're welcome. I think any torrents will be released as an optional plug-in for the client. That way, those that don't want to be involved with torrents don't have to be but can still use Nxt (like they can object to torrents now but still are happy to use the internet that torrents run on).

when is the torrent client released?

I missed this one
https://nxtforum.org/general-discussion/(preview)-torrents-plugin/

Seems a version was released for testing a couple of days ago

How does NXT benefit from the torrent client plugin?

[Daedelus]

How does NXT benefit from the torrent client plugin?

Incresed fees, possibly demand too, is the main benefit. As I understand it, the torrents are based on prunable data. They stay around for an initial period (2weeks is the default I think) but if you or anyone else wants the data to persists, you pay another fee(s).

I've not looked into it detail but that is the basic idea

So you pay a fee to upload data to the NXT blockchain which is retrievable by anyone via a torrent?  Is that how Torrentcoin works too?

I dont see demand for it if you have to pay fees to upload... it should be other way around.. but its to stop bloat.. however if its prunable perhaps it should be free to add and donation tips or fee to download or use.

I can't say anything definitive as I don't know the details. You could try in the threads I posted above, they might even work differently to each other. I don't know anything about torrentcoin.

Could this plugin fully replace torrent sites like thepiratebay theoretically? If so, this would be a huge potential for getting new users.

It is remarkable the orderly but massive sell off that is being taking place in NXT during the last few months... at a cost of 60% of the value of the project, of course.

Everything that can go right IS actually going right and yet the dumping is relentless, to the point that the market cannot assimilate it, no matter how good the news can be. Simply too many people selling... which we all know IS the main problem of this project: the distribution. Some or all of those 70-something people who hold 99.99% of the total NXT, are selling. Relentlessly if orderly. New investors, logically, have learn to stay away completely while the decline continues.

No good. Not good at all.
