The BitTorrent protocol remains one of the most efficient peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing systems, yet its usability is hindered by reliance on centralized torrent indexers that face legal, technical, and ethical challenges. This paper proposes , a conceptual hybrid search engine that combines distributed hash table (DHT) crawling, blockchain-based metadata storage, and community-driven moderation to create a resilient, censorship-resistant platform. We examine its architecture, indexing mechanisms, query processing, legal implications, and potential impact on digital content distribution. The paper concludes with a critical analysis of feasibility, adoption barriers, and future research directions. Under laws like the US DMCA §512, the
