BitTorrent Sync Beta API Now Available to Developers

I really like the project and I would love to use it for <a href="https://cloudfleet.io" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;cloudfleet.io</a> (shameless plug), but ... show us the source, bittorrent!<p>However I am hopeful that some other projects will come up (maybe based on <a href="http://www.gocircuit.org/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.gocircuit.org&#x2F;</a> ) that will give us the same functionality with a verifiable code base.

Without source it just can&#x27;t be trusted.

If I am reading this right, the API supports creating encrypted-only peers, they can hold your data without knowing the decryption key. My interest has just been piqued.

So according to the terms you&#x27;re unable to resell the service... so does that mean you can&#x27;t build a paid SaaS service which uses this as a distribution mechanism for files?

Why do I have to register in order to read the API docs? So annoying..

Does anyone know if by using BitTorrent sync, my internet connection will start to be used by other strangers as an intermediary node (to help them traverse firewalls?)

What&#x27;s are the protocol differences against libtorrent capabilities? I assume it can sync differences between files, can libtorrent do that?

Does anyone know which algorithm they use underneath for duplication detection&#x2F;delta encoding? Is it rsync or something else?

Is anyone using this for application deployment?
