While superficially similar, BitTorrent and a blockchain are inherently different designs that target different problems. Blockchain is massive data replication, BitTorrent is massive data distribution (with some replication too). That's why you can actually attack and shut down a bittorrent network, by targeting the index servers, that are not massively replicated. I.E. The Piratebay is often down. As a solution for this, I'll shamelessly plug my small project here, that combines bittorrents with the blockchain as a invulnerable piratebay-like bittorrent index server, called Blockchain Bay: https://github.com/ortegaalfredo/blockchainbay https://github.com/ortegaalfredo/blockchainbay It's command line, and don't use any tokenomic scams. You pay the blockchain only for the data you need to upload, that is fortunately, very little as bittorrent magnet links are very small.
