Tribler is a decentralized, privacy-enhanced BitTorrent client developed by researchers at Delft University of Technology. It introduces built-in anonymity using a Tor-like onion routing network and integrates its own blockchain for economic incentives and trust management. Tribler supports standard torrenting features along with distributed search, self-contained channels, and peer reputation. Its goal is to provide a fully autonomous file-sharing network without relying on external servers, search engines, or trackers.
