At the start of the year, TorrentGalaxy was one of the most-visited torrent sites, welcoming millions of users every day. <\/p>\nAt the start of the year, TorrentGalaxy was one of the most-visited torrent sites, welcoming millions of users every day. <\/p>\n
Launched by former members of ExtraTorrent which had shut down in 2018, TorrentGalaxy soon established itself as one of the most stable torrent sites.<\/p>\n
In the summer of 2014, things changed when the original founders sold the site<\/a> to a new, undisclosed party. The handover was immediately noticeable to outsiders, as the typically stable site suddenly began experiencing repeated stretches of downtime.<\/p>\n The site\u2019s troubles escalated in January 2025, when the new operators posted a message claiming they were in \u201cfinancial difficulties<\/a>\u201c, asking users to chip in for server costs. In late February, the site became unreachable<\/a>, and by March, the site\u2019s popular upload bots also stopped working<\/a>.<\/p>\n The reason for the sudden shutdown was a mystery and couldn\u2019t be explained by financial issues. The site\u2019s staffers were also left in the dark, and there was no farewell message of any kind to officially mark the site\u2019s ending.<\/p>\n In March, the staffers still had hope for a miracle comeback,<\/a> but the chances of that were not seen as very high and dramatically shrank in the passing months. Meanwhile, what truly happened behind the scenes was still unknown.<\/p>\n Today, the TorrentGalaxy saga gets an unexpected new chapter. The main torrentgalaxy.to domain is suddenly operational again. However, it does not list any torrents. <\/p>\n Instead, it now promotes a memecoin project for a token named $1 on the Solana network. Whether TorrentGalaxy\u2019s new owners are connected to this or if the site changed hands is unknown.<\/p>\n Needless to say, this has nothing to do with the original TorrentGalaxy site. We can\u2019t guarantee that the site is free of trouble, aside from the inherent crypto risks, so potential visitors should tread with caution<\/em>. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n A look at the site\u2019s source code reveals it is powered by a standard configuration script that\u2019s used for memecoin projects. For now, most links on the page are not functional either. They simply point to a \u201c#\u201d placeholder, suggesting that it is still work in progress. <\/p>\n We see no point in scrutinizing this memecoin in detail, as there are better outlets for that. However, the sudden TorrentGalaxy comeback does strongly suggest that the torrent site has been abandoned completely, marking the end of an era.<\/p>\n From: TF<\/a>, for the latest news on copyright battles, piracy and more.<\/p>\nA Memecoin Promo<\/h2>\n
