Is this project discontinued? There are no updates on github for 9 month: https://github.com/vtorrent/vTorrent-Client
I don't know, but the reason for that is because the developer said he doesn't want to make the torrent functionality open source because of its value and being awesome and stuff.

That sounds dodgy to me. Look at all the [awesome] cryptos out there on the top 100 and ask yourself if they aren't open source.

Open source and transparency is critical in the decentralized web, especially when there's one developer working on a coin making it pretty centralized.

I think this community and all investors must push for transparency if this project is to be successful.
