So many recent coins that have proposed to do exactly this-- add magnet/torrent links to their blockchains-- and either been scams or failed.
If you can show a working prototype of torrents in a blockchain BEFORE releasing a coin... and even better, make that coin all proof-of-work... you will have a hit on your hands.
I like the idea of paying a nominal fee for quality torrents, too.
I just... ugh. The ability to embed magnet links into a blockchain has been able to be done for a year now. And the protocol for it is coin-agnostic, you can apply it to anything. The reward function is a twist, and I'll keep an eye out on it, but I'll remain skeptical until I see it.

I spoke with the peeps at Bittorrent/uTorrent and while they know about crypto, I don't think they have put 2+2 together yet, however...
Just name it like TorrentCoin (but not dead like TC), or whatever, dont tie it to a single torrent index. That way its valid for all torrents, even legitimate ones. Let Piratebay implement a tip bot or something if they like.
If bittorent was to build a wallet into their existing torrent clients it would be huge, but the probability is it would be BTC. I think this will eventually happen so best beat them to it. Just my 2 cents.
Cheers and good luck

I want to keep track of this and similar projects in one place. Rather than pose a threat to rights owners, I think projects like TPB have the potential to solve the bandwidth issues that the internet is facing because of the growth in streaming videos. I also think that digital rights owners can actually use projects like this to save their antiquated business models. Why? Because what you are doing is figuring out a way for seeders to get paid for seeding. Paying distributors. But wait - that's what rights holders do, they pay distributors to distribute their stuff. If you can contribute to this work in progress summary of projects, such as TPB, I'm going to send links to news outlets to see if they will cover this new category. Thanks in advance! https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=932096.msg10231367#msg10231367

This is definitely an idea whose time has come. I hope this is genuine and will actually be built.

why not make something like bitcomet program ? users get coins instead of points OR points can be redeemed to coins:
How was the score calculated? BC Score = Points from online time + Points from uploaded Bytes.
Being online can generate 2 points per hour, with a limited maximum of 20 points, per day. Uploading files continually, via BitTorrent protocol, can generate 1 point per 10MB, with a limited maximum of 100 points, per day. Downloading files, via BitTorrent protocol, doesn't affect the Score. The same applies to HTTP and FTP protocol. The Score will be updated every 24 hours.

So this is just another way to mine coins - proof of bandwidth? What happens when you get to Max Coin supply? Bitcoin is due to revert to fees when all 21million Bitcoins are mined. Proof that fees will generate rewards for nodes and miners is already shaping up as people pay to get their transactions confirmed faster.
