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

Very excited to try out the Riot chat. Thanks Dev!

[coins101]

Feature request.

Please add Riot chat into the vTorrent road map.

As a pop out module, like BitTorrent and Trading tabs.

Riot is intended to run on decentralised networks and it is open source. Matrix is the OS and Riot is an app that sits on Matrix.

https://github.com/vector-im

https://matrix.org/docs/spec/

With Riot enabled, vTorrent will have its own BitTorrent forum, built in. You can then have channels on discussions to do with anything, but most importantly it can be the home of all private trackers.

Dear all,

Thanks to coins101 and community for support and suggestions.

Riot chat will be implement natively to vTorrent soon, please PM me if anyone wants to help out testing the Riot chat and I will send out beta wallet with Riot enabled as soon as it is ready.

Regards,
vTorrent

Cool feature to add, it would be very handy for building up the community.  

I wasn't expecting it to be added immediately, but wow  

It's not going to be useful just for the vTorrent community, but the whole of BitTorrent.

Riot is a stripped down version of Slack.

You could have hundreds of different Riot channels - basically little communities - all running off the vTorrent client.

If it's legal to run r/DarkNetMarkets, then there is no reason why they can't also use vTorrent Riot chat.

This is a first mover opportunity, as once you're established as the place where the conversation happens it's hard to replicate. Sure the technology can be replicated, but not the social network aspect.

All without having to worry about sites storing your IP details.

The really nice side benefit is that to use Riot and keep up with conversations, you'll find most people will basically need to keep their wallet on all the time - which supports the security and speed of the network.

Might need to consider allocating a larger default space allowance on the local hard drives - or give people the option to allocate 20GB without Riot, or 200GB with?  

The Riot chat channels would be separate from the blockchain, so no need to worry about bloat on that.

wow - great contribution.

Lots of Riot channels means lots of people posting links to get the vTorrent client and then lots of links all over the web directing people to discussions within the vTorrent client.

This is basically the best marketing opportunity, ever. Thousands of users all promoting the client, even those not into BitTorrent.

Is there a social network for dark markets, or has vTorrent just become the first, especially for torrents?

Chat is already in the client and working.

You've obviously never used slack.  They are adding slack type features.  That's way more than just chat.

Got a file you want to share and charge for? Put it into BiTorrent section, then charge for bandwidth.

Got some sort of desire to share for nothing? Put it into BitTorrent section, and don't charge. Maybe ask for donations.

etc.

Am I able to download shit from thepiratebay and just seed it on vTorrent and earn coins? 

Not if the people that uploaded on piratebay do it first! xD

Actually this could be a big problem, whats to stop one person from downloading a paid torrent, then distributing it for free?

The way I picture this happening is this:


1. Person A initially uploads File A at a fixed price of 1TOKEN
2. Person B pays Person A 1TOKEN for the download, then does one of two things.
3a. Person B allows others to upload File A and shares profit with person A.
3b. Person B modifies File A to become File B and uploads File B at a fixed price of 1/2TOKEN.

If people chose 3b whenever they get a file, the price of that file will trend towards free which to be fair, after a long enough period of time, a file should become public domain and thus free (but that's just my opinion).

To combat against this, I thought a good way of combating the problem would be to:

1. Set a time limit that states after X amount of time, the file becomes public domain and free to download.
2. Allow the user to set a cap on how much money they want to make before the file becomes public domain.

Just a thought

What happens when Person C downloads the file?

He uploads it for 1/4 TOKEN?

This could proceed to infinity and no one would download from the original uploader

VTR logo makers should be pursued in the course for copying material protected by trademark from movies. I saw VTR logo in a movie Jackie Brown.

This is the race to zero I highlighted a while back.

Finding a way to keep a diminishing percentage always going back to the original seeder is the solution.

It ends up being like MLM selling, which effectively makes the original seeder tons of money, but also everyone inbetween.  It also serves to get people to promote vTorrent.

The original seeder could be the rights holder.

[coins101]

Something really interesting about Riot:



You can actually use vTorrent chat to verify who you are talking to in the new vTorrent Riot channel.

Someone can sign their Riot id using VTR tokens. This with PGP would make it a secure place to hold private conversations.

So I think we might want to think about a new name for the Riot channel?

vRiot?

BitTorrent Riot?

It's actually not a bad idea, a very smart solution

However, not for the mainstream audience

It should be good for smaller publishers

The thing about markets is that you should provide options so people can choose the approach that best suits their needs.

So it would be great for people to offer up any suggestion. There is no need to have a binary position.
