Torrents require seeding in perpetuity. One screw up and your IP is known by every peer.
- fsflover 2y agoThere are no ip addresses in i2p.
- big-green-man 2y agoTo torrent you need an IP. You have to exit the i2p network via an exit node. You're seeding, and if somehow you continue seeding and get disconnected from i2p, everyone will see your IP address.
- fsflover 2y agoThis is not true. I2PSnark BitTorrent client never makes a connection to a peer over any other network, as written in the official docs: https://geti2p.net/en/about/software https://geti2p.net/en/about/software. In other words, I2P has its own torrent servers and network, which never reveals any ip addresses.
