A torrent can distribute information, but it cannot guarantee the full fidelity and preservation of that information through time.

If nobody seeds it, it disappears. If multiple versions emerge, there is no mechanism to prove which history is authoritative. A torrent has no concept of immutable state, consensus, or conservation. It moves copies of data, but it cannot guarantee that the exact same information survives forever unchanged.

Bitcoin conserves a single immutable canonical history. If the goal is to preserve information for all time with provable integrity and an unchanging history, a torrent cannot do that. Only a timechain can. Bitcoin stores information as conserved blocks of time. There is no second best way to preserve information vs entropy.
