[ANN][VTR] vTorrent - Share with freedom | 2FA | HD | @Bittrex

[ik_do]

That's the vtorrent dev. You're already running software that he's written so the "safe to use" question is a bit misguided.

So is your reassurance. You cannot demonstrate either statement is true.

Cheers

Graham

Yes, that is technically true I suppose.

i really don't understand what's the point of a crypto currency in relation with torrents

do you have to pay to share/download torrents? if yes, why on earth should i do that when i can get any torrent for free and in a safe way?
do i get coins for uploads? who pays me?

my company is working on some torrent client prototype (cannot write details) and i'm curious to know more about this coin

Because torrents aren't "free"; bandwidth is not "free".
There has also been a sustained attempt at shutting down torrent-related websites over the past decade; which has increased significantly in the past few weeks.

There are also torrent trackers and communities that have been hit by legal consequences; without sustained communities torrents will die off (never entirely, but the idea of BitTorrent being "content rich" could easily fade away after some time).

vTorrent is best described as a project that will incentivize the torrent network.

well, torrents have been free for long time and i expect they will continue to be free for long

if people are loosing money or getting caught then should be upgraded the tech behind it, no more centralized torrent websites and you can keep torrents totally free and without any bandwidth waste with webtorrents, webRTC and just a browser.

i understand the incentive and why you want to push it but we torrent users have been just fine for many years without it

Will there be any legal repercussions then since other torrent sites getting shutdown?

 If someone has a choice of offering free and earning a little to share then which one do you think they will choose?

[btc_zero_sum]

the torrent community gives a shit about earning money, pirate groups are not there for the money, the whole point of piracy is something else, surely is not money

and, if you expect mass usage of this platform, have you imagined the legal implications of earning money for uploading protected material?

Regardless, have you seen the past few pages of this discussion? You're sitting here 2 weeks after what.cd--the largest music tracker on the planet got shuttered plus when a number of other raids have occurred.

Go back and read some of my posts where I've discussed what benefits an incentivized model could bring (i.e. making sure older content is still shared)

As for legal issues, vTorrent is just software like BitTorrent. The end user decides how they use it.

There are 150m-300m potential users, even if just 1m use vtr to get a good, reputable and encrypted connection, then VTR will have a bigger user base then the whole of the crypto scene on coinmarketcrap, other than Bitcoin and perhaps Litecoin.

So while you have a point, you are also missing the point. vTorrent is a market based option, within the existing landscape, it will find people that want to use it and people that want to profit from making bandwidth available.

If you are telling me that there are zero private systems that have a payment option, I can tell you that you have never heard of Usenet.

Price keeps climbing, anyone selling or just holding?

[Testudoguy]

wallet zero looks like hungry for more.
me personal am not even thinking of selling, if others want to do theres even a otc offer if someone want to sell large sums.
just wished i would have been bought more some weeks ago.
place 129 right now on coinmarketcap looks good too.

What or who is 0 wallet? Such thing as 0 wallet exist?
How many coins?

the first wallet on trex

[rhinomonkey]

Yea, that wallet has been accumulating quite a bit. Above 600k now. Maybe they want to donate some

Crazy why would somebody want to accumulate
So much. Thats like 7 procent of total current
Supply. The guy has some insider info?

[xxxccc]

With vtorrent we will pay for download torrents?

Could be, but it's not hard to see that this has a lot of potential. They bought a lot I think when it was much less expensive. Seems like they are very ok buying more. Dev team seems solid, and when torrent features are released there will likely be a huge pump...

as coins has said - the user base potential is gigantic
