BitTorrent 2.0 is not recent, no.
The current bittorrent company is interested in chasing ICOs, I don’t think they work on new versions of the protocol anymore?
edit: yeah it’s from 2008
- capableweb 6y agoPeople are working on BitTorrent yes! libtorrents blog made a blog post quite recently (September 7th, 2020) - https://blog.libtorrent.org/2020/09/bittorrent-v2/ https://blog.libtorrent.org/2020/09/bittorrent-v2/
- shp0ngle 6y agoThat is libtorrent, unrelated to bittorrent, no? (organizationally)
- capableweb 6y agoYeah, maybe you were explicitly talking about the company BitTorrent Inc. "work on new versions of the protocol anymore?" made me think of the BitTorrent protocol in general, sorry for the misunderstanding. I think you're right that the BitTorrent company aren't directly involved in the protocol work, they seem to be focused on trying to push their plagiarized cryptocurrency project.
