A seedbox is a remote server that downloads and seeds torrents for you, usually with a web interface and often a media server next to it. Bulletproof.to allows torrent clients, seedboxes, Jellyfin and Plex, does not act on foreign DMCA notices and gives you a KVM VPS from €22.99 a month, paid in crypto and without ID.

qBittorrent itself is light. Jellyfin asks for 4 GB or more, and the disk is what fills up, so add up to 100 GB of extra disk from the panel. Keeping several terabytes of media? Dedicated servers give you every disk in the machine and no traffic cap.

Install your seedbox

  1. 1. Install qBittorrent without a desktop and a user for it

    apt install -y qbittorrent-nox
    adduser --disabled-password --gecos '' qbtuser
  2. 2. Start it as a service under that user

    systemctl enable --now qbittorrent-nox@qbtuser
  3. 3. Read the temporary web interface password from the log, then log in on port 8080 and change it

    journalctl -u qbittorrent-nox@qbtuser | grep -i password
  4. 4. Install Jellyfin with its official script and checksum

    curl -fsSLO https://repo.jellyfin.org/install-debuntu.sh
    curl -fsSLO https://repo.jellyfin.org/install-debuntu.sh.sha256sum
    sha256sum -c install-debuntu.sh.sha256sum
    bash install-debuntu.sh
  5. 5. Open Jellyfin on port 8096, point a library at the qBittorrent download folder

Commands from the official qBittorrent, Jellyfin docs, checked in November 2026. The project may change them, so look there if one fails.

Questions about hosting a seedbox

Are torrents allowed?

Yes. Torrent clients, seedboxes and media servers are allowed. Foreign DMCA notices are not acted on, the list in our acceptable use policy still applies.

Can Jellyfin or Plex transcode on a VPS?

Only slowly, there is no graphics card. Play files in their original format, or use clients that support it.

How much disk can I get?

Up to 160 GB on the biggest VPS plus 100 GB of extra disk. For more, a dedicated server with large disks is the better choice.

Is the traffic really unlimited?

There is no monthly cap and no charge per TB. The port is shared with other servers on the host, so a server that keeps it full for long stretches may be asked to slow down.

Do you need my ID or name?

No. You sign up with an account number, no email or ID is required, and you pay with Monero, Bitcoin, USDT or Litecoin.

Do you install it for me?

No, you get a clean server with full root access and install it yourself with the steps on this page. Support helps with the server, not with the app.

How copyright complaints are handled is on the DMCA ignored hosting page.
