The BitTorrent (CCC:BTT-USD) crypto token is doing well for itself Tuesday as the prices rise higher.
So what exactly has crypto traders excited about BTT today? It all comes down to a major event taking place on Dec. 12. At that time, the BitTorrent network will launch. This network will include its file-sharing platforms, as well as the BTT token.
Now that we know what has BTT on the move today, let’s dive into what BitTorrent is all about below!
- BitTorrent isn’t exactly a new name on the internet.
- The service has been around for years and offers file sharing between users.
- The files are shared in a decentralized way.
- Basically, the downloader pulls parts of the file from several users until they have it completed.
- Then, they have the option to become a seeder, which lets others download parts of that file from them.
- It’s a peer-to-peer system that makes sense in the growing blockchain world.
- The introduction of the BTT token also makes it so that users can earn crypto while doing this.
- That’s possible through BitTorrent Speed.
- It increases the download speed users have available to them and also pays them in BTT for acting as seeds to other users.
- Adding crypto as a reward for seeding makes sense as previously there wasn’t much of an incentive to do so.
- That in turn increases the number of seeds, which opens up more users to download files through the service.
BTT is up 41.9% over a 24-hour period as of Tuesday morning.
