From the scuttlebutt FAQ:

Replication of larger files could be implemented by integrating bittorrent (or even better, webtorrent).

Is anyone working on that? All I know is there's #blobs

webtorrent was used for ferment but made problems IIRC. how much integration are you looking for? adding info-hashes to content is quite easy, as are DAT or IPFS links.

I was reading this more along the lines of "webtorrent might become a second channel to spread blobs."
similar to the way manyverse can use wifi, internet, and bluetooth for gossip.
