Have you heard about #BitTorrentSpeed?

BitTorrent Speed is the revolutionary application that utilizes the BTT token to reward users for seeding and increased bandwidth on the peer-to-peer file sharing service.
Basically, users will receive incentives in BTT to share (seed) the files, thus increasing download speeds and as well as the selection of downloadable files. This will not only increase the reach of BTT, but also the entire peer-to-peer file sharing ecosystem should improve as a result.
Moreover, BTT’s long-term vision goes far beyond file sharing.
As stated in the project’s whitepaper, BTT will eventually provide a distributed infrastructure platform to third-party app developers. This will allow users to benefit from a borderless economy with computing resources being exchanged for BTT tokens.
Do you think BTT will continue to pump, or will it come crashing down soon? Let us know what you think in the comment section below.
