We have discussed these benefits in detail before, including the ‘swarm merging’ possibilities. “We support both hybrid and v2 only torrents for downloading, magnet metadata downloads and with all our existing features such as swarm discoveries and I2P,” Parg from BiglyBT informs us.ĭifferent torrent formats may sound like a step backward, but it’s a prerequisite for many added benefits that make BitTorrent ready for the decades to come. Older clients may be able to access the v1 swarm without change, but this is not guaranteed. BiglyBT supports these, allowing files to be downloaded via both the v1 and v2 swarms. To aid migration, there are ‘hybrid’ torrent files that contain information to construct both v1 and v2 swarms for a set of files. The v2 torrent format creates a different, stronger torrent hash for a given set of files which will result in a separate swarm from a v1 torrent containing the same files. One of the main differences users may notice from BitTorrent v2 is that it creates a new type of torrent format. These clients have yet to implement the functionality and were beaten to the chase by BiglyBT.

It was first proposed by Bram Cohen in 2008 and updated and improved along the way.Ī few weeks ago, v2 support was officially added to the Libtorrent library, which is used by popular clients including uTorrent Web, Deluge, and qBittorrent. In basic terms, it’s a new and improved BitTorrent specification that includes several technical changes. This latest release includes BitTorrent v2 support, which makes it the first torrent client to support the new specification.īitTorrent v2 isn’t well known to the public at large but developers see it as a potential game-changer. The developers continued improving the software over the years and they have just released a new version with several updates. However, BiglyBT is much more than just a copy.

The user interface is old-school and packed full of nifty features, just like the client it was based on. People who try BiglyBT will immediately notice that it has been created by veteran BitTorrent coders. After that project stalled, they left to create their own spinoff instead. The open-source software is created by ‘Parg’ and ‘TuxPaper’ who previously worked as the main developers of Azureus and Vuze. BiglyBT is a relatively new BitTorrent client that first entered the scene during the summer of 2017.
