I’ve just announced my project JoyStream (www.joystream.co), a new BitCoin enabled BitTorrent client.
Here is a demo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uj8di5KkoMw
The client tries to improve the lack of incentives to seed by allowing leechers to make small payments, using multiway payment channels, in exchange for pieces. This creates a market for bandwidth, where people can download everything fast and instantly stream HD content, and also monetize their spare bandwidth by seeding. I am looking for interested early users, interested in both seeding and leeching, who can help shape the client through the early tests.
