BitTorrent distributes bytes better than any CDN and has never been a
product: nobody is paid to seed, and nothing in it is private. Every
Profullstack media property answers that with a central HTTP proxy and a
pass system bolted on, and pays for every byte it serves.

OpenSwarm is an add-on to BitTorrent, carried as BEP 10 extension
messages, that fixes both. The swarm carries AES-256-CTR ciphertext whose
integrity is pinned by two SHA-256 merkle roots in a signed manifest, so
a tracker or DHT node learns an infohash and a size. A leecher buys a
pass over x402 in USDC (the same exchange x402-gateway runs for crawl
passes, settled by CoinPay), a seeder serves inside a bounded credit
window, and the leecher signs a cumulative voucher for every verified
batch. Whoever seeds gets paid. Vanilla clients remain valid members and
browsers remain first-class peers.

Adding a file mints a key pair for it, derived from one publisher seed by
default so there is one thing to back up: the public half is the file's
identity and its BEP 46 key, the private half signs the manifest and
authorises grants and payout changes, and a separate content key
encrypts the bytes and is sealed to paying peers.

The family: a core (records, keys, hashing, transports, discovery,
events), ipfile, ippay, ipdb (a signed hash-chained catalogue with heads
on the DHT), ipaudio, ipvideo, iplive (paid relays with backpressure)
and ipname (Moshpit pins and DNS TXT). Plus the c0mpute.com integration
with seven workload types and thirteen use cases, a proposed ip CLI,
conformance profiles, a security model and an FAQ.

Registered on the site the way OpenCreds is: nav entry, docs registry,
sitemap, a /openswarm landing page, PRD 0005, and the MCP prd_next_id
expectation moved to 0006.

Specs only. No code, no schemas, no reference implementation.
