Project Overview

BitTorrent is a popular peer-to-peer file-sharing protocol that enables users to freely share data and large files, such as movies, programs, and audio files, over the internet. BitTorrent was launched in 2001 and, despite not being blockchain-based, has long been a pioneer in decentralized technology due to its peer-to-peer architecture. BitTorrent Inc. was formed in 2004 to manage the ongoing development of the protocol, and in 2018, it was acquired by Justin Sun, the founder of Tron.In February 2019, BitTorrent released a dedicated native token, BTT, to help expand its protocol and incentivize the network's participants. In December 2021, BitTorrent announced the launch of BitTorrent Chain, which is a heterogeneous cross-chain interoperability protocol. It adopts PoS and leverages sidechains for the scaling of smart contracts.

SUN, JUST, AINFT, BitTorrent, and WINkLink—the five core projects of the TRON ecosystem—have jointly launched the “TRON Eco AI Pizza Festival” with B.AI, a cutting-edge AI financial infrastructure platform. The event runs until May 29. A dedicated prize pool of 2,000 USDT has been established, and new users will receive 500,000 B.AI points. To participate, users simply need to follow and retweet the relevant project posts, claim points at chat.b.ai/chat, use their exclusive AI Pizza invitation code to submit a query, and then @ three friends and leave a comment in the event’s tweet thread. The prize pool will be unlocked once the total number of comments across all five projects exceeds 4,000; final rewards will be distributed based on each project’s comment-section engagement ranking. Through this dual-incentive mechanism, the event significantly lowers the barrier for Web3 users to experience state-of-the-art large language models, accelerating the integration and real-world adoption of AI infrastructure within the TRON ecosystem.
