BitTorrent Speed FAQs

Does BitTorrent Speed involve mining?

No. The TRON blockchain does not need your computer resources to process transactions, so your torrent client will never mine.

How does the bidding mechanism work in BitTorrent Speed?

Each client supports a limited number of slots for uploading to others. Your client will now bid automatically on your behalf in order to attempt to unlock a slot when you otherwise might not be able to get a slot from a peer. The tokens are only used to reward seeders. No commission is taken by the network!

What is file seeding?

Seeding is where you leave the torrent running in your open client after you've finished your download to help distribute bytes. You distribute the file while downloading, but it's even more helpful if you continue to distribute the full file even after you have finished downloading. An open client will continue seeding unless the torrent is removed or stopped (right click the torrent, then hit Remove).
