why is there such a difference between earnings and in app credit ? And why are BTT deducted even though I have disabled the option ? It is very frustrating. I've been seeding for 2 weeks to earn ~1000 BTT and every now and then 100-200 BTT are suddenly gone. Image

I have the same problem, I've found a post on reddit reporting the same more detailed: https://www.reddit.com/r/BittorrentToken/comments/mm2ofa/btt_wallet_is_absolute_garbage_be_careful_because/ They really need to fix these problems asap or BTT will lose its legitimacy/worth quickly.

Side note -- anyone else having issues with BTT forums / support -- they are 100% unresponsive over there and my support posts not getting approved.

Hi, I'm not qualified nor a developer, I can only write my thoughts. I think that in-app balance and total earnings are different, because in-app counts only the BTT that are correctly assigned to your ID, while total earnings counts all the BTT that your ID has "booked". I understood that BTT speed works like a auction and there is a third actor which assure that payment occurs only if the upload was done. I think some "bookings" fail for whatever reason. For example, once I saw in earnings-graphic three bars around 80 BTT each, but actually I got only 80 and not 240. But yes, I agree with you that earnings count should be consistent with in-app balance, spendings and withdraws, because current number is meaningless and irrelevant.

I have ~8200 torrents loaded, and uTorrent (both stable and beta versions) is crashing roughly every 10 minutes. Which of course makes it completely unusable because it won't even finish checking the incomplete downloads before it crashes again, let alone continuing the download. My resume.dat is 158 MB. I do not know how big it is supposed to be, but 158 MB does not sound like an awful lot to me. I am trying to load my resume.dat into 64-bit version of BEncode editor, just to see if there's anything obviously wrong there. And the app consumes 4,7 GB of RAM just to read this file. No wonder that poor 32-bit uTorrent is having hard times parsing it! (Even with LAA flag, which is not set by default, a 32-bit app can only address 4 GB of memory.) Why cannot we just have a 64-bit version of uTorrent? Forcing people to use 32-bit apps in 2021 is crazy! I am already a paying uTorrent Pro customer, and I am even willing to pay a little extra for a 64-bit version. (Even though it's ridiculous.) Or perhaps the developers need to come out from the shades and make a clear support statement. E.g. maybe uTorrent is only supposed to work well if you have less than XYZ torrents loaded. And anything more than that is formally not supported and at your own risk only. Then maybe people who want to load more torrents will stop complaining and will go look for other torrent apps.

I agree with almost all of what you said 100%. I would disagree that 158mb is not a lot. The entire Holy Bible is 3mb when converted to a ZIP file. My resume.dat file is 31 mb.. which is STILL the equivalent of 10 bibles. I have roughly 8000 torrents. That comes out to about 4000 characters worth of information for EACH torrent! That is clearly a problem. There is no reason why a single torrent should be more than 100 bytes, which would result in a Resume.dat of 800k.. less than 1mb! It could be.. that they have allocated far too large of a fixed size for each record in the DAT file. In your case, each torrent is using roughly 20,000 characters worth of information. But that gets back to the big problem.. it doesn't seem like anybody is listening!

If you see Speed there than you have "BitTorrent | Enable Protocol Enhancments" checked in options. This allowed uT to install the "BitTorrent Speed" add-on at some point. This add-on is a fairly large thing, and if you do not use it then turn it off by: 1) Quit 2) save settings.dat [just in case!] 3) launch and uncheck "enable protocol enhancments", save. 4) Quit and relaunch. It shd be off/gone now. FWIW the btspeed add-on is in the ut/helper folder. Note: once turned off it will not come back simply by turning it on again - you need to wait for it to be offered up again, perhaps a few weeks. you may also lose your earned tokens. [restoring the prev settings.dat file might bring it back immeadiately, I'm not sure tho]. But if you're not using the feature you don't care anyway... If in doubt read up on BitTorrent Speed. --- you can also disable other "baggage" in uT: TronTV, BTFS and DLive, with these Preferences | Advanced option changes: offers.dlive_enabled to false offers.TronTV_enabled to false offers.btfs_enabled to false. [I think btfs has been totally depreciated] Note: you need to hold down shift-f2 when clicking on Options | Preferences menu choice to see these "hidden" options. [This an an old trick, shift-F2 reveals a different second-set of advanced parameter-names, always best to try both regular and then shift-F2 when "snooping" thru the parameters. BEncode Editor is also great for snooping thru .dat files]. Once done these guys [F8 and F9] should be dimmed in the Options drop-down menu, and gone in the sidebar. Lightening the misc features may make it work better for you... good luck. [Remember to always make a backup of settings.dat just in case!]

Thanks for the update. In case anyone had high hopes for the new build, it's still crashing every ~10 minutes at me. Update Oh great. Now apparently it crashes even before it manages to save the settings file at least once. Because every time I relaunch it again, it opens the browser with the stupid “hey we've updated you” page. Which probably means that the fact it already did that was not recorded in the settings file. So, it becomes even worse than before.

I do better than compatibility, this is a win 7 machine. So that isn't the answer. Something was done to the code in 2020 that caused this.

There have been a new beta + stable after that... RTF[Thread]...

@freedomdwarf: You'd need to remember and appreciate, that *because* of such users - you can extend the lifespan and download [still available] older torrents, otherwise, reaching their end-of-ONLINE-life ...

Can someone help me to make BitTorrent Speed work again on my uTorrent app? I cannot access it since I deleted a lot of files from %appdata% folder. I did uninstall the uTorrent app and reinstalled it again several times and nothing... I tried also with BitTorrent app and also with uTorrent Web and BitTorrent Web... Nothing. I am getting the following message when I push the Speed button: "Can't access helper UI - try again later". Does anyone know how to solve this? Thank you, Bogdan Get faster downloads and BTT token rewards.

I actually believed that Utorrent 3.5.5 build 45952 finally fixed the problem of randomly dissociating files - which causes all sorts of problems. I got my database of torrents 100% fixed, which took nearly a week to accomplish. 7800 torrents running just fine. But then.. for no reason.. without a crash.. about 900 of them lost their associations again. I give up! Qbittorrent seems to be the most promising replacement for Utorrent/Bittorrent. They just updated to version 4.3.4.1 and there is a 64 bit version. Rafi and a couple of others have been doing a fantastic job of making Utorrent work as best it can, and helping people overcome problems. The fact that Rafi's repeated pleas for a 64 bit version have been ignored - tells me that Utorrent is never going to solve it's problems. I am keeping utorrent on my computer, but I won't be using it to download new torrents. I will use it to seed old torrents, and probably phase it out completely in about a year. Microsoft Windows operating system and Facebook are also loaded with errors that will probably never be fixed. It's interesting that in TV shows and in movies, computers are always shown working flawlessly, with no delays - yet in reality.. we get shit. Microsoft makes untold billion$ off of it's crappy software, even though you don't buy it directly, every computer product you purchase is forced to pay royalties to Microsoft. Even if your computer doesn't run Windows, computer manufacturers STILL have to pay Microsoft for every motherboard they produce. It's great to have a monopoly! Likewise with Facebook. All facebook cares about is collecting and verifying your name, mobile phone number, location, email addresses and any other information that is none of their business, so that they can sell it to advertisers, marketers, investigators, government agencies, and anybody else that will pay for it. Facebook even does their best to prevent you from using your own database of friends and followers to do anything. Their lists are not alphabetical, not consistent, and unusable. If Qbittorrent has big problems, I will let you know. So far, I am very impressed with Qbittorrent. It is very smooth and fast, and doesn't lock up or crash. The one tiny problem I found is that if you have a torrent that contains multiple files, but you choose to skip some of them.. everything is fine UNLESS you then add those files later. To fix it, you must remove the torrent (making sure you don't remove the files as well) and then add the torrent back and re-check it. This is a very minor problem that I am sure they will fix. Most people never skip files within a torrent - and when they do, they don't add them back - so they would never notice this error.

The GUI/UI has been unchanged for ages now, from V1.x . So I guess Ludde - the original Swedish dev who sold uTorrent to BT inc (aka now - Tron) has developed it. Pretty old stuff and no Ludde now, from Windows 7 days.... Who knows, maybe using Win7 compatibility mode can improve this for you...
