WebTorrent is a new implementation of the bittorrent protocol designed to work over WebRTC. This allows browsers to download torrents without plugins. However, due to the limitations of WebRTC it isn't possible to make the protocol compatible with bittorrent (or uTP).

Issue to track progress on getting WebRTC support into popular torrent clients
