faq: nostr and bittorrent? #138

Open ghost opened 1 year ago

ghost commented 1 year ago

Hello,

I would like to know if you all have thought about creating a specification referring to Bittorrent+nostr. Have you all ever thought about creating a specification referring to Bittorrent+nostr?

idea? My general idea is to decentralize metadata about torrent files in nostr. So use Bittorrrent to share and search torrent files with nostr. I didn't find any specification of nostr+bittorent. An interesting case for nostr-bittorrent is that you don't need to have a central server to manage the torrent files.

how? Protocol for decentralized image and video hosting: "the idea of ​​this proposal is to decentralize files, imagesns by bittorrent. My idea is to decentralize magnetic links in nostr."

what do you all think of this idea?

That traffic could potentially cause a lot of stress on the relay, at least I would believe it to.

I think having predefined directories, nostr clients can use this feature with a bittorrent client installed on the device to easily manage torrents.
