![]() Maelstrom can load web pages on the internet like any regular browser, but it has the added ability to access torrent-based websites hosted on other PCs. Both peers and seeds continue to share the files with other peers who require more data to complete the file or website on their end. On the other hand, seeds already have the complete file downloaded. In BitTorrent parlance, peers are computers who have opened a torrent file – or in the case of Maelstrom, a website – in their browser or client but do not have the complete file yet. Maelstrom is a Chromium-based browser that allows websites to work over the BitTorrent protocol and be hosted independently of centralized servers by peers.
