BitTorrent has lasted this long, simply because it is truly useful. Wide coverage, affordability, decentralized pathways—these advantages are not just PR hype, but real network effects created by millions of nodes worldwide.

Many people see it only as a download tool, but from the perspective of underlying infrastructure, it is actually more like an open bandwidth trading marketplace for the internet. More nodes mean stronger distribution capability; stronger distribution means supporting more content and application growth—this creates a self-reinforcing cycle. Truly valuable assets are often those foundational infrastructures that can scale and operate sustainably.

Looking for long-term opportunities in a major public chain ecosystem? Instead of obsessing over short-term hot topics every day, it’s better to clarify the line of distributed storage and protocol collaboration. The growth potential of these foundational layers is far more substantial than hype around themes.

The BT protocol has indeed been underestimated; once the network effect kicks in, it becomes unstoppable.

To be honest, this guy really explained the essence of BT. The network effect has indeed been underestimated; the true moat lies right here.

The BT protocol is really underestimated, it's the fossil of P2P but still survives fiercely. --- Exactly, infrastructure is the real money-making business; hype topics are just gambling. --- Once network effects are formed, they are hard to replace. That’s the moat. --- Wait, why are so many people still using magnet links? It shows that nothing can really compare. --- Distributed storage is definitely worth exploring; it's much more reliable than those demonized tracks. --- The more nodes, the stronger the distribution. This logic makes sense—self-reinforcing cycle, wow. --- The underlying protocol is not flashy but the most valuable. Few people really get this. --- Open internet bandwidth market? Look at it from a different angle, and it’s a whole new world. --- The true long-term value is things that can run and last. --- BT has been around for so many years and is still alive, which shows the design itself is solid.
