Topic: Can we earn bitcoin by Torrent seeding ? - page 4. (Read 9104 times)
There are or at least was a few altcoins that had the goal of integrating torrents into their protocol. It would have been like an alternate internet where everything can be downloaded peer to peer and maybe some content creators could sell files (such a movies or short videos) for the altcoin. It would be very efficient to pay very small amounts to watch a video because of the low fees.
Noone seems to have heard of coinado?
The user downloads a simple script which creates a bitcoin address to send btc to. User sends bitcoin to pay for their downloads at about $0.05 per GB.
The script on the merchant end would be simple. Dunno if that is open sourced.
The thing originally downloaded over Tor, but now it's just open network https.
Very cheap and fast, while coming from a seeder who seems to have access to a lot of torrents.
As someone already said, accepting money for pirate copies of most things involves a risk.

But, bitcoin isn't money....it's just data. It's not legal tender, nor is it fungible, liquid, regulated, or backed by any commodity that is fungible, liquid, or regulated....so....it's open until some precedent is set on those matters. Right? I wouldn't pirate for bitcoin though because it's wrong.....micro-payments for content are fair so intellectual property doesn't, or shouldn't, need to be stolen anymore anyway.
There are few way which already mentioned by other members.
But, i think it won't be worth if you have slow or expensive connection.
Also, i think seeding a torrent should be something that you do to help other downloaders, not to earn money.
The one who should earn money is the one who make that torrent or it's original creator.
Its not only about that. People could just hook up torrents to seedboxes thereby seeding those torrents indefinitely. And for a private torrent to be seeded someone has to be downloading, so speed is not always important. Online time also counts significantly.

vTorrent is working on paying part of the PoS interest to seeders and uploaders. Should help strengthen the torrent network too, stop the leaches. in essence your monetizing torrents.
Look at how many people use torrents per day compared to crypto.
Should be a game changer when it's released.

Yes ofcourse we can make bitcoin by offering torrent leeching services ,and the other way, make a software that can mine bitcoin and torrenting in the same time like others torrenting software do
Check out Seedbox,GBox,DTS Leech and ByteSized Hosting; they are claimed to all accept bitcoin as payment option.
Regarding the tutorial; you can always find one on youtube./google

I think it will be possible in the future to share parts of your harddrive and get paid, without necessarily having to share anything, just free space. For example the Maidsafe project is based around this concept. I cant wait until it goes live so I can start putting my big TB hard drives to use because I don't know what to do with so much free space
JoyStream was being built with that aim, but they're in test phase and only work with the testnet, I think... There aren't other systems like that, that I know of.

Yes.
You can earn bitcoin.

supercopier or µtorrent integrate a miner of bitcoin ... now.
Utorrent has eaten a lot of shit for installing the miner in their software. It was removed very soon after the discovery as people never gave permission to install it.
It has damaged their reputation along the insane amount of adds it is now hosting quite badly.

Isn't it just line untorrent where you can pay to download torrents anonymously without the hassle of all the complicated command line thing you have to do in coinado ?
ed:
just saw site. Actually prices are way cheaper. So will give it a try.

Torrent operates globally. If the seeder is at Russia and Leecher is at Germany, then what is the risk? The user downloads a simple script which creates a bitcoin address to send btc to. User sends bitcoin to pay for their downloads at about $0.05 per GB.

Just asking...
Never heard of earning bitcoin by torrent seeding, but that was great if it has any
In a way you can do it.
There's an altcoin called Storj,provides distributed cloud storage: http://storj.io/
And gives away some coins that you can sell for bitcoins later.

there was also datacoin, that was claiming to move data directly on their blockchain, torrent data
basically data had a value with it, i dunno what happened to it, it was a cool altcoin with a nice feature
If it is still active it will be really cool. I am sure a lot of my friends would want to earn coins by just seeding at high speeds. Seedboxes however will kill it.
There seems to be quite a bit of money being made with private trackers. Upload credits are usually sold by the trackers. I'm not too familiar with it, but to my knowledge upload credit is usually not transferable, which is actually a shame in my opinion.
If they were, it probably wouldn't be too far fetched to build a upload credit/BTC exchange.
However, if upload credits were tradable, then it's probably also not too far fetched that this would have an impact on the earnings due to the selling of upload credits by the trackers, so I assume trackers are not incentivized to move in this direction.

Existing private BitTorrent trackers should implement a seed2earn feature. Especially on private trackers, torrent files get left for dead after a few weeks or months. It would be nice if people could deposit an x amount of BTC in their account and offer a reward between 0.0001-0.001BTC per uploaded GB of the movie or game they want to download. If some one is willing to seed an old torrent file of for example 5GB, he then would receive a small reward for it. It's a nice idea.
I think theres is no but theres some website that you can earn with your files by uploading it to the PPD site then share it to some one to earn a bitcoin...
They should implement a service, where people put up requests and place Satoshi's in escrow for the seed, if it becomes available. There are people with stuff in archives that they
not seeding, but with some extra monetary motivation, they might just dig up those archived material and place it online for seeding. So when these seeders go online and they
see a list of people requesting something with a big bounty, they might work harder to get it.
