Tron’s BitTorrent acquires DLive

As reported by U.Today on Monday, Tron’s CEO Justin Sun teased the community, promising to announce a new acquisition made for the BitTorrent network. However, Sun stated that this would also benefit Tron and TRX.

He even put up a poll with potential companies, one of which was assumed to be joining BitTorrent and Tron. Among them was the Steem platform and Netflix. Over fifty percent of voters chose Steem.

However, later that day, Justin Sun and BitTorrent spread the word that DLive starts migrating to Tron and BitTorrent's BLive app will be merged into it.

DLive is a blockchain-based platform for video streamers on which content-makers can monetize their work.
