    From the primary IPFS paper [1], which mentions "torrent" 26 times: "In IPFS, data distribution happens by exchanging blocks with peers using a BitTorrent inspired protocol" [1] https://github.com/ipfs/ipfs/tree/master/papers/ipfs-cap2pfs https://github.com/ipfs/ipfs/tree/master/papers/ipfs-cap2pfs

  I wouldn't disagree with that.
