Idea Validation: Blockchain for torrent to solve "no seeder" problem

PROBLEM

  • Some torrent files are too old to have some seeder (but to someone the file is demanding)

SOLUTION

  • Blockchain to encourage people to seed some demanding files to earn reward

HOW IT WORKS

  • I want to download torrent X, but since it's too old (no seeder), so I post the reward "100 coins for torrent X"
  • Seeder who have this torrent can decide to seed this file and earn 100 coins
  • In seeder point of view, the system is kind of earning passive income for seeding files

So what do you think? Are there a need for this issue?

    Already exists or was at least in the works when Tron bough Bittorent. Not sure about the progress.
