You will also earn bandwidth tokens by sharing channel content with other users. Relaying traffic will increase your bandwidth token balance.

When connected to other peers in the Tribler network, your Tribler instance automatically becomes eligible for relaying traffic to other users if other users download content anonymously. You can earn bandwidth tokens by simply running Tribler. We refer the interested reader to our recent publication (see Section 7) that further discusses our token mechanism and provides more technical details. Subtracting the amount of ‘taken’ bytes from the amount of ‘given’ bytes yields the bandwidth token balance. The amount of performed and consumed work are indicated as ‘given’ and ‘taken’ in the user interface respectively. At this time, this work is the amount of incoming and outgoing traffic but our mechanism is open for extension (e.g., in a future release we could also reward users for storing data or performing computations). Your token balance indicates how much work you have performed for other users and how much work other users have performed for you. When downloading the same file using three hops, you pay 3 Gigabyte of bandwidth tokens instead. Each additional hop increases the amount of bandwidth tokens you have to pay. Increasing the number of hops benefits anonymity but costs you more bandwidth tokens.įor example, if you download a 1 Gigabyte video with one hop anonymity, you pay 1 Gigabyte worth of bandwidth tokens.
If you download with three hop anonymity, your encrypted data is sent through the machines of three other Tribler users. This is the number of other users, or hops, you use during a download. The exact amount of bandwidth tokens you pay to others, depends on the level of anonymity. If you accumulate more bandwidth tokens, you get preferential treatment when downloading anonymously, which results in higher download speeds. When uploading content to other (Tribler) users, you earn bandwidth tokens. In Tribler, you compensate other users for the bandwidth you use when downloading with anonymity. If you have a slow internet connection, the video might shutter when being played. When clicking this button, you will go to the video player and the video will play. When you download a video, the streaming button appears at the top of the screen.
