The Seeder Problem Was Never Technical — It Was Economic
Technically, seeding is simple.
Economically, it’s irrational — unless incentivized.
Why would someone keep uploading data, consuming bandwidth and energy, without compensation?
They wouldn’t. And at scale, they didn’t.
BTT flipped that equation.
Now, seeding isn’t just helpful — it’s profitable.
Why it matters:
Decentralized systems don’t fail because of code. They fail because of misaligned incentives. BitTorrent fixed that at the root level.
