Now you can pay, or be paid for torrenting files, thanks to joystream.co!

This seems like an amazingly cool use case for Bitcoin!

Looks neat!

Nice! Glad to see it!

How many here intend to host all of your ubuntu.iso or whatever just to see if anybody goes for it...?

I think Popcorn Time should integrate this system in its software to encourage the seeders.
